Systematic review and metaanalysis of lymph node metastases of resected pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors

The optimal surgical strategy for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) is unknown. However, current guidelines recommend a watch-and-wait strategy for small nonfunctional PNETs (NF-PNETs). The aim of this study is to investigate the risk stratification and prognostic significance of lymph node m...

Description
Summary:The optimal surgical strategy for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) is unknown. However, current guidelines recommend a watch-and-wait strategy for small nonfunctional PNETs (NF-PNETs). The aim of this study is to investigate the risk stratification and prognostic significance of lymph node metastasis (LNM) of PNETs to guide decision-making for lymphadenectomy.
