Core Tip |
Cardiovascular complications of neuroendocrine neoplasms are the leading cause of patient death, even in comparison to metastatic disease. Early detection of right ventricular dysfunction, as well as all changes in the tricuspid valve are of crucial importance. Here being presented is a patient case of advanced carcinoid heart disease with a poor prognosis. In the light of current recommendations, it seems reasonable to search for subclinical right sided heart damage by determining NT-proBNP in patients with elevated biomarker values and neuroendocrine tumors with the aim of an earlier diagnosis and more timely treatment. |
