• 論文の詳細を見る

• We report a 57-year-old woman with a primary hepatic carcinoid tumor who had been suffering from symptoms due to carcinoid syndrome and carcinoid heart disease for more than 9 years. Long-term injection of octreotide acetate was fairly effective to relieve the symptoms due to carcinoid syndrome, but its tumor contraction effect was not confirmed. The massive ascites in the follow-up period appeared to be diminished to a certain extent by timely chemotherapy including cisplatin. The patient died of multi-organ failure about 9 years after the onset of disease. Autopsy confirmed a primary hepatic carcinoid tumor with limited distant metastases.
