类癌(Garcinoid)的同名词有嗜银细胞瘤(Argentaffinoma)、嗜银细胞癌(Argentaffin Carcinoma)或Kultschitzky细胞癌。自从发现此肿瘤至今,已有一个世纪多时间。虽属少见病,但国外文献在近三十年来却很丰实。国内报道较少,除1956、1964、1965年相继各报道一例外,我们曾在1973年也报道过两例。随着基层医院设备条件的逐步完善,相信此肿瘤会引起广大医务工作者的重视。本文仅把近十年来有关类癌的外科临床资料作一综 Garcinoids have the same terminology as Argentaffinoma, Argentaffin Carcinoma, or Kultschitzky cell carcinoma. It has been more than a century since the discovery of this tumor. Although rare, foreign documents have been very substantial in the past 30 years. There are few domestic reports. Except that 1956, 1964 and 1965 successively reported one exception, we also reported two cases in 1973. With the gradual improvement of basic hospital equipment conditions, I believe this tumor will cause the majority of medical workers to pay attention. This article only makes a comprehensive analysis of surgical and clinical data on carcinoid in the past decade
