The authors describe a group of six patients (two men and four women) operated at the Surgical Clinic in Plzen during 1995-2000 on account of a carcinoid of the GIT. The mean age of the patients was 48.6 years, the range 14-77 years. In five instances a carcinoid of the appendix was detected. In a separate case-record they evaluate a carcinoid of the ileocaecal transition with symptoms of acute abdomen, early surgery, its extent incl. the postoperative procedure.
