Abstract		Small bowel carcinoid usually presents with clinical symptoms and signs deriving from its endocrinological influences and rarely bleeds profusely. Herewith we present a case of a patient with intestinal bleeding. Its origin was successfully discovered by means of wireless capsule endosopy. On patohistological examination it proved to be a small bowel carcinoid.
Summary		Karcinoidi v tankem črevesu redko krvavijo in se klinično večinoma kažejo s simptomi in znaki, ki izvirajo iz njihove endokrine in parakrine aktivnosti. Predstavljamo primer bolnika s krvavitvijo iz prebavil, pri katerem smo izvor krvavitve uspešno odkrili s pomočjo kapsulne endoskopije. Patohistološka analiza je pokazala, da gre za karcinoid tankega črevesa.
