Abstract
The first known case of a primary pure ovarian carcinoid in pregnancy occurred. Urinary 5-hydroxyindol acetic acid (5-HIAA) assays were negative despite elevated whole blood serotonin levels. Careful surgical staging and serial determinations of 5-HIAA and serotonin are recommended for detecting evidence of recurrent or metastatic disease.Entities:
