Gastrointestinal Neuroendocrine Tumors

Gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors (GI-NETs), also known as carcinoids, are a type of tumor that develops in the neuroendocrine cells of the gastrointestinal tract. These tumors can occur anywhere from the stomach to the ****.

GI-NETs are generally slow-growing tumors that arise from hormone-producing cells in the gut. They can be cl****ified into different types based on their location within the gastrointestinal tract. Some common types of GI-NETs include gastric NETs, duodenal NETs, small bowel NETs, and colorectal NETs.
