Type 1 tumours are usually benign whereas type 3 are highly malignant.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:italic>Aims<\/jats:italic>\u2014To identify possible tumour markers in patients with gastric carcinoids.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:italic>Patients\/method<\/jats:italic>\u2014Nine patients with type 1, one with type 2, and five with type 3 were evaluated with regard to symptoms, hormone profile, and prognosis.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>\u2014Plasma chromogranin A was increased in all patients but was higher (p&lt;0.01) in those with type 3 than those with type 1 carcinoids. All patients with type 3 carcinoids died from metastatic disease, but none of the type 1 patients died as a result of their tumours. One type 1 patient with a solitary liver metastasis received interferon \u03b1 and octreotide treatment. Nine months later, the metastasis was no longer detectable. She is still alive eight years after diagnosis, without recurrent disease. This represents the only reported case of foregut carcinoid with an unresectable liver metastasis that seems to be have been cured by biotherapy.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>\u2014Plasma chromogranin A appears to be a valuable tumour marker for all types of gastric carcinoid.
