摘要
The authors describe a patient with neurological symptoms caused by a carcinoid tumor at the terminal filum without carcinoid "flushing" syndrome or endocrinological abnormalities. The patient underwent subtotal resection and adjuvant radiotherapy. Extensive postoperative workup revealed no primary site of disease. To the authors' knowledge, this patient represents the first case of terminal filum carcinoid tumor.
