#3084 Diffuse Idiopathic Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Cell Hyperplasia (DIPNECH): A Case Report and Review of Literature

Introduction: Majority of euroendocrine tumorsare found in the gastrointestinal tract and bronchopulmonary. Multifocal disease is common among patients with low-grade NET. One example of this is diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia. DIPNECH is an extremely rare but indolent disease with predilection for nonsmoking, middle-aged women.

#3074 Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma and DIPNECH: An Unexpected Association

Introduction: Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a neuroendocrine tumour of the C-cells of thyroid gland. Diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cells hyperplasia (DIPNECH) is a rare condition, thought to be primarily a neuroendocrine proliferative process which can develop into carcinoid tumours.

#3049 Organoid Models of Neuroendocrine Cell Growth and Tumorigenesis

Introduction: A paucity of in vitro and in vivo models has limited the study of Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs). Moreover, little is known about normal neuroendocrine (NE) cells and how they contribute to NEN formation.

#2754 Somatostatin Analogs (SSA) in Patients with Symptomatic Diffuse Idiopathic Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Cell Hyperplasia (DIPNECH)

Introduction: DIPNECH is characterized by a proliferation of pulmonary neuroendocrine cells and multifocal neuroendocrine tumorlets and/or tumors. Although usually indolent, DIPNECH can cause chronic cough and dyspnea. There is very limited information on treatment.

#2251 Neuroendocrine Testicular Tumour. An Unusual Issue.

Introduction: Neuroendocrine tumours can arise from neuroendocrine cells throughout the body. Location on testis is rare, accounting less than 1% of all testicular malignancies.
