Introduction Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are epithelial neoplasms that exhibit neuroendocrine differentiation, and they can arise from neuroendocrine cells, which are distributed widely throughout the body. NENs are relatively rare, with

Introduction Islet cell tumors of the pancreas (ICTs) are neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), which are classified into three entities: 1) ICT as sporadic tumor; 2) ICT as a component of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1; Chandrasekharappa et al
