Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are rare entities arising from neuroendocrine cells in the gastroenteric tract and pancreas. The purpose of this article is to present four cases of gastroenteropancreatic NETs that featured a challenging diagnosis.
We report a case series of four NETs, each with different features. All NETs were suspected based on clinical and biochemical data. The workup of the abnormalities was performed with CT, PET or MRI.
The diagnosis of NETs is challenging and generally based on clinical manifestations, blood biochemical tests, imaging techniques, and pathology.
胃肠胰神经内分泌肿瘤(NETs)是起源于胃肠道和胰腺神经内分泌细胞的罕见实体瘤。本文旨在介绍4例诊断具有挑战性的胃肠胰NETs病例。
我们报告了一组4例NETs病例,每例都有不同特征。所有NETs均根据临床和生化数据怀疑。通过CT、PET或MRI对异常情况进行检查。
NETs的诊断具有挑战性,通常基于临床表现、血液生化检查、成像技术和病理学。
