Pulmonary neuroendocrine (carcinoid) tumors: European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society expert consensus and recommendations for best practice for typical and atypical pulmonary carcinoids.
BACKGROUND Pulmonary carcinoids (PCs) are rare tumors. As there is a paucity of randomized studies, this expert consensus document represents an initiative by the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society to provide guidance on their management. PATIENTS AND METHODS Bibliographical searches were carried out in PubMed for the terms 'pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors', 'bronchial neuroendocrine tumor...
متن کاملHigh expression of the POU factor Brn3a in aggressive neuroendocrine tumors.
A new family of POU transcription factors called Brn plays a role in development of the brain and some neuroendocrine structure. Because a member of this family, Brn3a, is present in the ACTH-producing mouse pituitary tumor AtT-20, binds to POMC promoter, and stimulates its activity, we studied its human homolog in ACTH-secreting or nonsecreting tumors of pituitary and bronchial origins. A spec...
متن کاملDevelopmental trends in targeted radionuclide therapy of neuroendocrine tumors
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) constitute a heterogeneous group of neoplasms including carcinoids, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, pituitary tumors, medullary thyroid carcinoma and phaeochromocytomas.

We read with interest the paper by Dell’Asta et al. [1]. In 1995 we published an article in which we pointed out the importance of In-DTPA-Pentetreotide scintigraphy (Octreoscan) in the preoperative diagnosis of ACTH-producing bronchial carcinoid [2]. Neuroendocrine tumors (of which spectrum bronchial carcinoid are comprised [3]) of the lung and the thymus are most frequently responsible for ec...
متن کاملNANETS consensus guideline for the diagnosis and management of neuroendocrine tumors: well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors of the thorax (includes lung and thymus).
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the thorax, including bronchial and thymic neuroendocrine NETs, are often referred to as NETs of the foregut. The incidence and prevalence of NETs are increasing in the United States as demonstrated in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results from 1973 to 2004 (J Clin Oncol. 2008;26[18]:3063-3072). Although the majority of bronchial and thymic NETs are spo...
