Frequently Asked Questions (8)
Q2. What are the contributions in "Enets consensus guidelines for high-grade gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and neuroendocrine carcinomas" ?
In this paper, the authors present a review of the state-of-the-art oncology departments at the University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.
Q3. How long does the survival of a patient with a metastatic NEC last?
Median survival in the metastatic setting may be as short as 1 month for patients receiving only best supportive care, up to 12–19 months for those treated with best available therapy [1, 12] .
Q4. What is the mainstay of care in advanced disease?
Medical Therapy Chemotherapy is an essential part of the multimodal-ity approach for localized NEC and the mainstay of care in advanced disease.
Q5. What is the grade of the pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor?
The high-grade (WHO G3) pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor category is morphologically and biologically heterogenous and includes both well differentiated and poorly differentiated neoplasms.
Q6. What is the morphologically apparent high grade component of the gastrointestinal neuroendocrine?
Tang LH, et al: Well differentiated neuroendocrine tumors with a morphologically apparent high grade component: a pathway distinct from poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinomas.
Q7. What is the recommended procedure for somatostatin receptor scintigraphy?
Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy is not routinely indicated but may be considered in tumors with proliferative indexes in the low range of G3 (Ki-67 <55%).
Q8. What is the way to diagnose a neuroendocrine tumor?
Cancer Sci 2014; 105: 1176– 1181. 14 Korse CM, et al: Choice of tumour markers in patients with neuroendocrine tumours is dependent on the histological grade.
