Surgical resection of panNETs, including small and nonfunctioning, appears to be associated with improved OS. Enucleation is associated with shorter operative time, less blood loss, but greater incidence of POPF. Prospective, randomized clinical trials are needed to confirm these results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
