Core Tip Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) are rare neoplasms with variable clinical and pathobiological characteristics posing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Mostly nonfunctional with low growth rates, some cases can be functional while others can run an aggressive clinical course. Hormonal, imaging and histological assessments are essential for planning appropriate diagnosis, prognosis and management. Therapeutic strategies depend on the tumor grade, functionality and presence of metastatic disease. Nonfunctioning pNETs very rarely turn functional during the advanced disease course. Presenting a unique nonfunctioning metastatic pNET case, later evolving to an insulinoma, we update the diagnostic, prognostic and management strategies for pNETs in the evidence-based review.
