Within the group of Gastro-Entero-Pancreatic Neuroendocrine tumours (GEP-NETs), several heterogeneous malignancies are included with a variety of clinical manifestations and imaging characteristics. Often these cases are inoperable and minimal invasive treatment offered by image-guided procedures appears to be the only option. Interventional radiology offers a valid solution in the management of primary and metastatic GEP-NETs. The purpose of this review article is to describe the current status of the role of Interventional Radiology in the management of GEP-NETs.
在胃肠胰神经内分泌肿瘤(GEP-NETs)组中,包含几种具有不同临床表现和影像学特征的异质性恶性肿瘤。这些病例通常无法进行手术,而影像引导下的微创治疗似乎是唯一的选择。介入放射学为原发性和转移性GEP-NETs的管理提供了有效的解决方案。这篇综述文章的目的是描述介入放射学在GEP-NETs管理中的作用现状。
