ABSTRACT
Los carcinoides de células caliciformes del apéndice cecal son una patología infrecuente con características propias dentro de los tumores neuroendocrinos apendiculares. Presentamos tres casos de esta entidad, dos diagnosticados en un cuadro clínico de abdomen agudo y otro como hallazgo incidental en una colectomía derecha por un adenocarcinoma de colon. La media de edad fue de 46,6 años, el 100% fueron mujeres. Los tres casos se trataron con una colectomía derecha laparoscópica. En el seguimiento, una paciente presentó una metástasis del adenocarcinoma de colon en el hígado y otra una carcinomatosis peritoneal, siendo ambas reintervenidas. Dos pacientes están vivas en el momento actual con un seguimiento de 26 meses de media y una falleció a los 16 meses por progresión de su enfermedad. Realizamos una revisión de la clínica, diagnóstico, clasificación y tratamiento de este in-usual tipo de neoplasia
The goblet cells carcinoid of the cecal appendix is an uncommon disease with own characteristics within the appendicular neuroen-docrine tumors. We present three cases of this entity, two diagnosed in a clinical picture of acute abdomen and another as incidental finding in a right colectomy for colon adenocarcinoma. The average age was 46.6 years, 100% were women. All three cases were treated with a laparoscopic right colectomy. In follow-up, a patient presented a metastasis of adenocarcinoma of colon in liver and other a peritoneal carcinomatosis, being both operated. Two patients are alive at the present time with a follow-up of 26 months on average and one died at 16 months due to progression of their disease. We carry out a review of the clinic, diagnosis, classification and treatment of this unusual type of malignancy
