Abstract
Carcinoids are rare malignant tumors, and their outcome is usually favorable after surgery. However, local recurrence and/or metastases can occur with both typical and atypical carcinoid tumors, justifying the need of prompt diagnosis and long-term follow-up. The factors influencing the survival included the pathological type, distant metastasis and mediastinal lymph node involvement.
