    Author: Aranha GV, Greenlee HB.
    Journal: Am Surg; 1980 Aug; 46(8):429-35. PubMed ID: 7406348.
    Abstract:
    Between the years 1950 and 1976, 76 patients with carcinoid tumors of the gastrointestinal tract were seen at the Hines Veterans Administration Hospital, Hines, Illinois; of these, 48 tumors were recognized clinically. Five- and ten-year survivals were 56 and 44 per cent, respectively. The best survivals were seen in patients with carcinoids originating in the appendix, followed by the small bowel, rectum, and then the colon.
