Small bowel carcinoid tumors are more common in the distal ileum and they are multiple in 30% of cases. The most common clinical manifestation is abdominal pain and the treatment of choice is surgical excision. We report a 63 years old female consulting for abdominal pain. An intestinal transit by computed axial tomography revealed multiple images compatible with small bowel carcinoid tumors. She had a surgical excision of the involved intestinal segment and the pathological study confirmed the imaging diagnosis. In the follow up, this patients has been asymptomatic.
