Case Study: Unresectable Neuroendocrine Cancer Treatment
Dr. Dino Prato and Dr. John Oertle review a stage 4 neuroendocrine cancer case. Neuroendocrine cancer is a type of cancer that originates in the neuroendocrine cells. Neuroendocrine cells are found throughout the body, but they are most commonly located in the digestive system, such as the pancreas, intestines, and lungs. Neuroendocrine cancers are relatively rare and do not typically respond to conventional chemotherapy regimens. This patient's tumor was so large and vascular that no conventional surgeon was willing to resect it or provide any treatment options.
