Carcinoid tumor is the most common neuroendocrine tumor affecting the gastrointestinal tract. The coexistence of multifocal carcinoid lesions is a well-established phenomenon. Although intubation of the terminal ileum is not routinely attempted during colonoscopy, it can occasionally reveal the presence of some incidental findings. We present a patient with known rectal carcinoid, who was found to have another carcinoid lesion in the terminal ileum during surveillance colonoscopy. The patient underwent right hemicolectomy, and no chemotherapy was required as the patient was found to have stage 1 carcinoid tumor.

Neuroendocrine tumors are slow-growing neoplasms, histologically based on enteroendocrine cells. They are tumors with different degrees of differentiation, uncertain bio­logical nature and metastatic ability. Their most common localization is the gastrointestinal tract, with a special group of the neuroendocrine tumors of appendix, which are incidentally found after appendectomy. In case report, we would like to present a case of a patient with neuroendocrine tumors of appendix dia­gnosed by colonoscopy.
