The localization of carcinoids in the gastrointestinal tract is frequently difficult if not impossible with imaging procedures used to date. It reported on a patient metastasizing carcinoid whom various were successful detecting primary tumor. Due importance tumor proof for potential curative surgical therapy, whole-body positron emission tomography F-18-DOPA was performed. PET enabled ileum. Moreover, addition known abdominal lymph node and liver metastases, it detected mediastinal...

Background and Objectives: Although many of the neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) have a typically prolonged natural history compared with other gastrointestinal tract cancers, at least 40% patients develop liver metastases. This study aims to identify whether resection improves overall survival metastases from NEN. Materials Methods: We conducted retrospective "Fundeni" Clinical Institute over time period 15 years; we thereby identified series 93 treated for NEN metastases, which further...
