High Tumor Uptake on 18F-FDOPA PET/CT Indicates Poor Prognosis in Patients with Metastatic Midgut Neuroendocrine Tumors: A Study from the Groupe detude des Tumeurs Endocrines and ENDOCAN-RENATEN Network
Conclusion: Tumor uptake on 18F-FDOPA PET/CT is an independent prognostic factor in patients with metastatic midgut NETs. (Source: Journal of Nuclear Medicine)

Diagnostic and therapeutic approach of rare thoracic tumors
Conclusion: The control of the progression of a tumor is based on a reasoned diagnostic approach and the early implementation of an appropriate treatment. The progress made in medical imaging, associated with the work of clinicians and pathologists, now allows increasingly early diagnosis for better management of rare intrathoracic tumors.

Performance of capsule endoscopy for the detection of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumor in familial carcinoid: a prospective single site study
Small bowel neuroendocrine tumors are slow growing, clinically silent tumors whose prognosis depends on disease stage. Members of kindreds with a familial form of small intestine neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NET) represent a high-risk population for whom early detection improves disease outcome. The aim was to determine the utility of small bowel capsule endoscopy (SB-CE) for screening high-risk asymptomatic relatives from kindreds with familial carcinoid.

Clinical impact of mixed pulmonary carcinoma and carcinoid: the driver from their mono-clonal origin
AbstractThe combination of neuroendocrine/non neuroendocrine lung tumors (CNNELT) mentioned in the last edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) of Thoracic Tumors refers to small cell carcinoma (SCLC) or large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) mixed with any other non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Typical Carcinoid (TC)/Atypical Carcinoid (AC) combined with NSCLC is not included among this category. However, case reports of TC/AC combined with NSCLC have been described. We previously reported 2 cases of lung adenocarcinoma (LUA) mixed with carcinoid sharing mutations in both components supporting the hypoth...
