affects only ~30% of patients, whereas primary hyperparathyroidism (~95%) and pancreatic islet cell tumors (~40%) are the major clinical manifestations ( Thakker 1998 ). Additionally, in CNC pituitary adenomas are relatively rare (~10% of patients) and the

Introduction Neuroendocrine neoplasms of the pancreas (pNENs), originating from the islet cells, are considered rare, although incidence is increasing ( Dasari et al . 2017 ). pNENs can occur as part of genetic syndromes, such as multiple

glioblastoma tissue and for both CA-9 and GLUT-1 normal liver tissue was used as controls. For all stainings the intensity (negative, weak positivity, strong positivity) as well as the percentage of positive tumor cells was recorded. VHL deletion analysis

Introduction Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours (SI-NETs) are rare and mostly slow-growing neoplasms originating from the enterochromaffin (EC) cells of the intestine ( de Herder 2005 , Yao et al . 2008 ). EC cells are chemo- and

islet cell tumours, higher microvascular density (MVD) and VEGF (VEGFA) expression predict a more favourable prognosis ( Couvelard et al . 2005 ) and this has been called the ‘neuroendocrine paradox’ ( Scoazec 2013 ). Treatment with a neutralising
