AB  - Carcinoid  tumors  are  slow-growing  neoplasms  arising  from  enterochromaffin  cells.  Because  they  originate  from  neuroendocrine  cells,  they  are  capable  of  secreting  vasoactive  substances,  notably  serotonin,  kinin  peptides,  and  histamine.  If  these  substances  reach  the  systemic  circulation  in  sufficient  quantity,  they  may  produce  the  “carcinoid  syndrome”  which  has  important  ramifications  to  the  anesthesiologist.
