| Core Tip |
Pancreatohepatobiliary neuroendocrine tumors (PHB-NETs) are now mostly diagnosed via endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), with the pancreas being the most frequent site. While most PHB-NETs are benign, one-third are high-grade neuroendocrine cancers (NECs). Insulinomas are the predominant functioning neuroendocrine tumors. Key risk factors for NECs include age > 40 years, extra-pancreatic origin and small-cell histology. EUS-guided biopsy is essential for early detection, risk stratification, and treatment planning of PHB-NETs. Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for NECs in older patients with non-pancreatic lesions and small-cell histology to optimize management strategies. |
