Surgical Management of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pancNETs) are uncommon tumors with an estimated incidence of 1 to 1.5 per 100,000 and a prevalence of 35 per 100,000 in the United States. They originate from the embryonic endodermal cells that give rise to the islets of Langerhans. These cells are specialized cells that produce, store, and secrete peptides and biogenic amines and were formerly known as the am...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Surgical Treatment of Neuroendocrine Pancreatic Tumors
Pancreatic Endocrine Tumors (PNETs) represent a rare, but important subset of pancreatic neoplasms. These tumors account for 2–4% of all clinically detected pancreatic tumors. Their overall incidence is approximately 1 of 100 000 people per year [1,2]. PNETs consist of single or multiple benign or malignant neoplasms and are associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) in 10– 20% ...
متن کاملAggressive surgical resection in the management of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors: when is it indicated?
BACKGROUND Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) comprise a heterogeneous group of neoplasms for which treatment is variable, depending on the clinical stage. Despite this diversity, surgery remains the gold standard in the management of PNETs. This paper discusses whether aggressive surgical intervention is indicated for PNETs and investigates what prognostic factors may assist in predictin...
متن کاملPancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are usually indolent (slow-growing) by nature and develop over the course of many years. Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are usually more indolent, with better prognosis than adenocarcinoma of the pancreas (Carriaga & Henson, 1995). However, aggressive, fast growing pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors exist and different types of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors e...
متن کاملSurgical strategy in the treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
Endocrine pancreatic tumors are rare and their surgical treatment is often debated. This review analyzes the management and the different indications in functioning and non-functioning neoplasms. The choice among different procedures is described as well as the role of intra operative ultrasound. Moreover, the different patterns of tumor spread are considered (local, loco-regional and metastati...
