Overview
Carcinoid syndrome must be differentiated from systemic mastocytosis, medullary thyroid carcinoma, irritable bowel syndrome, malignant neoplasms of the small intestine, benign cutaneous flushing, and recurrent idiopathic anaphylaxis.
Differentiating Carcinoid Syndrome from other Diseases
Carcinoid syndrome must be differentiated from:[1]
- Systemic mastocytosis
- Medullary thyroid carcinoma
- Irritable bowel syndrome
- Malignant neoplasms of the small intestine
- Benign cutaneous flushing
- Recurrent idiopathic anaphylaxis
