Diagnosis of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) are relatively rare; however, the incidence has increased over the last few decades. They are classified as functional or non-functional tumors according to the presence of associated clinical symptoms. The majority are non-functional tumors. For classification and staging, the World Health Organization 2010 classification system is the most commonly acc...
متن کاملChromogranin A is a reliable serum diagnostic biomarker for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors but not for insulinomas
BACKGROUND Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) are a group of rare tumors. Chromogranin A (CgA) was considered as the most practical and useful serum tumor marker in PNET patients. But peripheral blood levels of CgA are not routinely tested in Chinese patients with PNETs. This study was to assess the diagnostic value of CgA in Chinese patients with PNETs especially in patients with insulin...
متن کاملIdentification of novel serum autoantibodies against EID3 in non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) are relatively rare heterogenous tumors, comprising only 1-2% of all pancreatic neoplasms. The majority of pNETs are non-functional tumors (NF-pNETs) that do not produce hormones, and as such, do not cause any hormone-related symptoms. As a result, these tumors are often diagnosed at an advanced stage because patients do not present with specific symptom...
متن کاملPancreatic neuroendocrine tumors: biology, diagnosis, and treatment
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs), a group of endocrine tumors arising in the pancreas, are among the most common neuroendocrine tumors. The genetic causes of familial and sporadic PNETs are somewhat understood, but their molecular pathogenesis remains unknown. Most PNETs are indolent but have malignant potential. The biological behavior of an individual PNET is unpredictable; higher tum...
متن کاملClinical relevance of different WHO grade 3 pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms based on morphology
PURPOSE Emerging evidence suggests G3 pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs) present heterogeneous morphology and biology. The 2017 WHO classification has introduced a new category of well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (WD-pNETs) G3, compared with poorly differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinomas (PD-pNECs) G3. We aim to analysis the demographics and outcomes of ...
متن کاملRegression of a Glucagonoma-Related Paraneoplastic Optic Neuropathy after Surgical Resection
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (PNETs) account for 5% of pancreatic tumours [1] and are malignant in 50-88% of cases [2]. PNETs can be functioning, i.e., with clinical manifestations due to hormonal hypersecretion, in about 30% of cases. The most frequent functioning PNETs are those related to hypersecretion of insulin and gastrin. Rarely, PNETs may be associated with VIPoma and glucagonoma ...
