Gastrointestinal Surgery of Neuroendocrine Neoplasms

2015
Surgery is the only treatment that may cure the patient with gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) and should always be considered as the first-line treatment if radical resection can be achieved. Even in cases where radical surgery is not possible, palliative resection may be performed to reduce local or hormone-induced symptoms

A Classification System of Echogenicity for Gastrointestinal Neoplasms

Digestion, 2005
<i>Background and Aims:</i> To confirm the utility of a newly-devised endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) echogenicity classification system, which is based on the normal five-layer structure of the gastrointestinal wall, for the differential diagnosis of gastrointestinal neoplasms.
