NANETS treatment guidelines: well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors of the stomach and pancreas

Matthew H Kulke et al. Pancreas. 2010 Aug.

Abstract

Well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the stomach and pancreas represent 2 major subtypes of gastrointestinal NETs. Historically, there has been little consensus on the classification and management of patients with these tumor subtypes. We provide an overview of well-differentiated NETs of the stomach and pancreas and describe consensus guidelines for the treatment of patients with these malignancies.
