متن کاملNonfunctioning cystic neuroendocrine tumor of pancreas. Presentation of an unusual case.

The approximate incidence of these neoplasms is from 1 to 2% of all pancreatic tumors and their clinical symptoms depend on the production of hormones or biologically active amines.

متن کاملAn Unusual Location of Neuroendocrine Tumour: Primary Hepatic Origin
Although neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) of primary hepatic origin are extremely rare, most of NETs present with liver metastasis. When a NET is found in the liver, it must be treated to exclude metastasis from extrahepatic primary sites. The patient was a 38-year-old female. Abdominal ultrasound showed an 8 cm tumour in liver during a routine examination. Liver biopsy was done. The tumour was fi...
متن کاملF-18 FDG PET/CT imaging of primary hepatic neuroendocrine tumor
Primary hepatic neuroendocrine tumors (PHNETs) are extremely rare neoplasms. Herein, we report a case of a 70-year-old man with a hepatic mass. The non-contrast computed tomography (CT) image showed a low-density mass, and dynamic CT images indicated the enhancement of the mass in the arterial phase and early washout in the late phase. F18- fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomogra...
