#4245 Carcinoid heart in neuroendcrine tumor – Experience of medical departement oncology Oran, Algeria

Introduction: The carcinoid heart is present in approximately 20% of cases at the diagnosis of carcinoid dyndrome in neuroendocrine tumors, and will occur in approximately 50% of patients during follow-up. The consequence is the appearance of stenosing and/or leaking valvular diseases, responsible, eventually, right or left ventricular dysfunction and severe heart failure. Only surgical valve replacement treatment seems to be able to improve the prognosis, but at the cost of significant perioperative morbidity and mortality.
