Carcinoid Heart DiseaseHeart Valve DiseasesSerotoninIndolesHydroxyindoleacetic AcidDeficiency of tryptophan with elevated serum serotonin and liver dysfunction are the prerequisites for the experimental production of cardiac lesions in the guinea pig model of carcinoid syndrome. To apply the above principles ...
Read about carcinoid tumor treatment, symptoms, and meaning. Carcinoid tumors in the lungs or gut often have no symptoms, however, they may cause carcinoid syndrome. Learn the symptoms, treatment, and prognosis of carcinoid tumors.

Carcinoid heart disease occurs in more than 50% of patients with carcinoid syndrome; in some cases, it represents the initial manifestation of the disease. We report the case of a 75-year-old woman with a metastatic neuroendocrine tumor admitted to the emergency room for fatigue and heart ...
Background/Aims: Recently, a decrease in heart rate variability measures was found in patients with carcinoid syndrome suffering from carcinoid heart disease compared to those without cardiac involvement of carcinoid syndrome. The prognostic relevance of this finding, however, was not clear. Patients an...
Because the venous drainage of the ovary bypasses the portal circulation, carcinoid heart disease in patients with primary ovarian carcinoid tumors may develop in the absence of liver metastasis. We describe 4 patients who presented with symptomatic carcinoid heart disease in association with primary ova...
The development of valvular heart disease in patients with carcinoid syndrome is thought to be related to the secretion of vasoactive substances by a tumor. We sought to identify modifiable risk factors for the development of carcinoid heart disease because this may help define strategies to attenuate...
Time domain heart rate variability measurements and echocardiographic studies were performed in 35 patients with carcinoid syndrome. Carcinoid heart disease was present in 18 patients (51%). Heart rate variability parameters (standard deviation of all normal RR intervals, percentage of the number of pai...
