“…However, rare instances of recurrence, lymph node involvement, and distant metastases have been previously reported (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26). Twelve cases of GPs with malignant features are summarized in Table 1.…”

“…The classification of the neuroendocrine tumors of the duodenum is based on the studies of Dayal et al [77], Lasson et al [78], Hamid et al [79], Stephens et al [80], Barbareschi et al [81 ], Burke et al [82], Pipeleers-Marichal et al [32], Zamboni et al [83], Capella et al [84], SanchezSosa et al [85], Dookhan et al [86], Ricci [87], and Hatzitheoklitos et al [88]. According to these studies five major types of neuroendocrine tumors can be distinguished in the duodenum: gastrin-producing tumor, somatostatinproducing tumor, gangliocytic paraganglioma, serotonin/ calcitonin/PP-producing tumors, and poorly differen tiated carcinoma.…”

The general use of the term carcinoid for the classification of neuroendocrine tumors has become increasingly difficult during recent years. First, its definition and prognosis varies from site to site. Second, its traditional definition does not cover the whole morphological and biological spectrum of neuroendocrine tumors known today. We therefore propose new classifications of the neuroendocrine tumors of the lung, pancreas, stomach, duodenum, jejunum-ileum, appendix and colorectum. These classifications use a common framework and attempt to consider the morphological, functional and biological features of these tumors.

“…Therefore, endoscopic or surgical excision of GPGs has hitherto been considered to be curative [35]. However, since several cases of regional lymph-node metastases and local recurrence have been reported, the assumption of their benign behaviour as a rule must be doubted [36,37,38]. Considering the little experience, we recommend lymph-node dissection for large tumours (size >2 cm) as we did in patient no.…”
