Summary: The authors present a case of rectal carcinoid tumor in an asymptomatic patient who sought a coloproctology service with the purpose of colorectal cancer prevention. During colonoscopy, a polyp lesion was found in the rectum, and it was resected with a polypectomy loop. Anatomopathological examination revealed a rectal carcinoid tumor with compromised margins. The lesion site was resected again and pathological exam no longer showed neoplasia. A systematic review of the issue was performed, discussing diagnosis aspects, difficulties in the choice of therapeutic approaches, and prognosis. The conclusion is that the rarity of the disease brings difficulties in the choice of treatment; although it has a good prognosis in most cases, its malignant potential cannot be underestimated.

Durante a colonoscopia observou-se uma lesão polipóide no reto, a qual foi ressecada com alça de polipectomia. O exame anatomopatológico evidenciou tumor carcinóide de reto com comprometimento de margem. O local foi novamente ressecado e o resultado patológico não mais evidenciou neoplasia. Neste artigo é feita uma revisão bibliográfica do assunto abordando aspectos diagnósticos, dificuldade na escolha da conduta terapêutica e prognóstica. O trabalho conclui que a raridade do caso implica em dificuldades na escolha da conduta e que apesar de ter bom prognóstico, em uma parcela dos casos o seu potencial maligno não deve ser desprezado(undefined)Sociedade Brasileira de ColoproctologiaUniversidade do MinhoViana, CharleneMarques, IsabelStaubus, AdrianoMartins, Sandra20192019-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/1822/67296eng2237-93632317-642310.1016/j.jcol.2019.02.002https://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S2237-93632019000200184info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-11T04:27:41Zoai:repositorium.sdum.uminho.pt:1822/67296Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T14:48:50.151176Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
