Core Tip |
Patients with functioning gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEPNETs) may have higher levels of psychological distress than other patients with cancer due to the symptoms of hormone hypersecretion. This study compares 25 patients with advanced GEPNET and carcinoid syndrome (CS) with 25 patients with advanced, but non-functioning GEPNET. Symptoms of anxiety, depression, impulsivity and health-related quality of life were assessed prospectively using symptom scales. Endocrine symptoms were significantly higher in patients with CS. Disease-related worries were more common in those with non-functioning tumours. This is a large study in this rare patient group and further prospective studies are required. |
