Core Tip	Rectal carcinoids are rare neuroendocrine tumors that are often missed or misdiagnosed in clinical settings due to the absence of specific symptoms in the early stage. This study reports on a hospital-based series of 21 patients who were successfully treated and followed up for 1-2 years for small rectal carcinoids less than 1 cm by means of endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) under micro-probe ultrasound guidance. EMR is found to be a safer option with fewer complications, shorter operation time, and comparable rate of complete removal to endoscopic submucosal dissection, therefore, EMR is more suitable for treating rectal carcinoids less than 1 cm in diameter.
