The Natural History of an Apparently Aggressive Gastric Neuroendocrine Neoplasm Type 1

#1017

Introduction: Gastric neuroendocrine neoplasm type 1 (GNEN1) is the most common GEP-NETs. GNEN1 has traditionally been considered non-metastatic as compared to the large, solitary GNEN3 that has high malignant potential.

Aim(s): To confirm that prognosis remains relatively good even in apparently aggressive GNEN1.

Materials and methods: We report the case of GNEN1 that followed an unusual initially aggressive course as it developed metastases to both lymph nodes and liver.
