A carcinoid tumour occurred in the uterine fundus causing an enlargement (12-14 weeks size). The patient did not have the carcinoid syndrome, despite elevated urinary 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid levels. The tumour had a typical organoid pattern with argentaffin-positive cells. Whilst a metastasis from an occult primary lesion cannot be entirely excluded, it is felt that this is a primary tumour most likely arising from resident endocrine cells in the endometrium.
