== Additional Info ==
*Carcinoid tumors are of neuroendocrine origin. They are usually slow-growing. They may secrete one or another substance that leads to a variety of symptoms, of which the most common is [[Carcinoid syndrome]].  But not all carcinoids secrete.  Also, carcinoid tumors may be malignant (this code) or benign.  They can arise in any organ, though the GI tract is the most common source.
**As of January 2021 we have not included a specific code for benign carcinoid tumors --- to code one use the appropriate benign neoplasm code and IF the person also has [[Carcinoid syndrome]], link it to that code.
*This code is for a carcincoid located anywhere; also code [[Carcinoid syndrome]] if present
*IF it is known, you can link this code with the origin of the carcinoid tumor --- e.g. if it is a carcinoid originating in the lung, link this code with [[Lung and/or bronchus, primary malignancy]]

| explanation = there is no Canadian code for carcinoid tumor and so we used this US code; this is also the reason why this code has a letter in it.
