Overview
Carcinoid syndrome was first described by Siegfried Oberndorfer, a German pathologist in 1907. Endocrine related properties of carcinoid syndrome was described by Gosset and Masson in 1914.[1]
Historical Perspective
Carcinoid syndrome was first described in 1907 by Siegfried Oberndorfer, a German pathologist at the University of Munich, who coined the term karzinoide, or "carcinoma-like", to describe the unique feature of behaving like a benign tumor despite having a malignant appearance microscopically. The recognition of their endocrine-related properties were later described by Gosset and Masson in 1914, and these tumors are now known to arise from the enterochromaffin (EC) and enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells of the gut.[1]
