  • Title: Goblet cell carcinoids of the appendix.
    Author: Berardi RS, Lee SS, Chen HP.
    Journal: Surg Gynecol Obstet; 1988 Jul; 167(1):81-6. PubMed ID: 3289135.
    Abstract:
    A review of goblet cell carcinoid of the appendix was undertaken. This interesting tumor appears to lie somewhere between an ordinary carcinoid and a well differentiated adenocarcinoma of the appendix in regard to its biologic behavior. The histologic features of the goblet cell carcinoid of the appendix are distinctive enough to facilitate a diagnosis, although the histogenesis remains controversial and unsettled. The prognosis is generally good in a patient treated by simple appendectomy, the treatment of choice in the majority of patients.
