title: Radical surgery for large-sized slow-growing neuroendocrine tumor of the pancreas.
abstract: An unresectable neuroendocrine tumor (NET) of the pancreas was diagnosed in a male patient in 1997. The tumor was bleeding and the patient underwent tumor embolisation with complete control of the bleeding. In December 2001 the patient presented again with gastric bleeding at the Emergency Hospital of Vilnius University, where the case was considered inoperable. In January 2002 the patient was transfered to the Lithuanian Oncology Center and was radically and succesfully operated.
