No multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) Patient died from pancreaticoduodenal neuroendocrine tumor – Results from long-term follow-up of the Uppsala model of early diagnosis and treatment
Introduction:
Progression of pancreaticoduodenal neuroendocrine tumor (P-NET) disease is the main death cause among MEN1 carriers. Although surgery is the only cure, indications vary substantially between centers. The Uppsala model of MEN1 management encompasses early diagnosis and treatment, aiming at lifelong malignancy prevention with preserved endocrine function. During three decades, all MEN1 patients harbouring P-NETs of at least 1 cm have been considered for surgery.

FDG-PET is Superior to WHO Grading in Predicting Overall Survival of Patients with Neuroendocrine Tumors: A Prospective Study of 172 Patients
Introduction:
Accurate grading of patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) is essential for risk stratification and optimal choice of therapy. Currently, WHO grading is based on histo-pathologically assessed degree of tumor proliferation.
