摘要：
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) causing carcinoid syndrome are very rare. Patients can have very general symptoms and tumors can be missed especially in the elderly where many symptoms may be attributed to the aging process. It is of the utmost importance to do a full workup on elderly patients even if the symptoms can be explained by aging alone.
