Mesenteric tumors are uncommon lesions. Primary mesenteric carcinoid is a rare entity with only a few reported cases. Therefore, a thorough examination of the resected bowel is necessary to rule out the presence of possible primary tumor in the adjacent bowel loop. We present a case of primary mesenteric carcinoid.
