[Diagnosis and surgical management of neureondocrine pancreatic tumours].
The only chance of cure for patients with pancreatic endocrine tumours (PETs) is complete surgical removal not only of the primary tumour, but also of local or distant metastases. This is true for gastrinomas, vipomas, glucagonomas, somatostatinomas and non-functional pancreatic endocrine tumours. An aggressive surgical approach leads to cure in patients with benign tumours, and may achieve long-term survival in patients with malignant NPTs.
