Digestive neuroendocrine tumours: Patterns, pathways, and progress in personalised management
Introduction:
Digestive neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), though rare, are increasingly diagnosed with their incidence rising. Histopathological examination is crucial for diagnosis and grading, based on cell differentiation and proliferation index. Often diagnosed late due to non-specific symptoms, these tumours may present with hormone hypersecretion. Updated classifications now allow better risk stratification and tailored treatments. Advances in imaging, particularly PETscans with somatostatin analogues have improved NET diagnosis and monitoring.

Digestive neuroendocrine tumours G1 and G2: Experience of the medical oncology department at the Oran University Hospital Establishment 1st November 1954
Introduction:
The histological classification of neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) remains complex, and their grading is a major prognostic factor, essential for guiding appropriate management. Moreover, NETs raise unresolved histogenetic questions. The treatment of grade 1 (G1) NETs primarily relies on somatostatin analogues, while grade 2 (G2) NETs, being more heterogeneous, may require management that includes chemotherapy or targeted therapy.

Inhibition of Cyclin Dependent Kinases Overcomes MYC-Driven Secondary Resistance to Everolimus in Digestive NETs
Introduction:
Dysregulation of the mTOR pathway in digestive neuroendocrine tumours (d-NETs) led to the introduction of Everolimus (EVE) as treatment. EVE significantly increases PFS, but most patients acquire resistance, due to activation of feedback loops.
