From january 1988 to december 1994 502 patients affected by colorectal carcinoma underwent surgical treatment in our institution. The neuroendocrine markers are: neuron-specific enolase (NSE), epithelial membrane antigens (EMA), synaptophysin (SYN), chromogranin (CGA), cytokeratines and neurophilaments. The period of follow-up was of 3 years. As reguards neuroendocrine tumors we observed a mean survival of 18 months. Malignancy and the incidence of metastatic spread endocrine tumors is greater than esocrine ones.
