A Case Report: Gastric Mixed Neuroendocrine-Nonneuroendocrine Neoplasm with Aggressive Neuroendocrine Component

Abstract: Mixed neuroendocrine-nonneuroendocrine neoplasm (MiNEN) is defined as mixed epithelial neoplasms composed of both neuroendocrine and nonneuroendocrine components with variable proportions for each component. Neuroendocrine component can show morphological features including well- or poorly differentiated neuroendocrine neoplasms and nonneuroendocrine component can present different tumor types depending on the site of origin. Recently, studies of tumors have shown that MiNENs are not as rare as our traditional… Show more

“…Among 69 studies (n = 667) reporting the grade of differentiation of the neuroendocrine component [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62]68,71,[73][74][75]79,80,82,[84][85][86][87]89,[91][92][93]96,97,100,101], a large proportion of MiNENs (92.5%; n = 617) had a grade 3 neuroendocrine component, whereas 4.3% (n = 29) and 3.1% (n = 21) had a grade 1 and a grade 2 neuroendocrine component, respectively. Among MiNENs with a grade 3 neuroendocrine component, the morphological subtype (large cell or small cell) was reported in 25 studies (n = 241) [11,…”

“…Interestingly, in 43 studies (n = 61) where more than one diagnostic sample was available [11,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]30,[32][33][34][36][37][38][39][41][42][43][44][45][46][47]49,50,53,55,[59][60][61][62]64,65,96], the initial diagnosis from the first sample collected (either cytological or histological) was in keeping with MiNEN or suspicion of MiNEN in 36.1% (n = 22) of cases, adenocarcinoma in 36.1% (n = 22), poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma in 21.3% (n = 13), and well differentiated neuroendocrine tumour in 6.6% (n = 4).…”

“…Mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (MANEC), has been described by WHO as a rare gastrointestinal neoplasm [1], histologically characterized by the presence of at least 30% each of epithelial and neuroendocrine components [2]. The tumor may appear in various levels of the digestive tract including the esophagus, stomach, colon and appendix [3][4][5][6][7], as well as other sites such as the pancreas [8], and urinary bladder [9][10][11][12]. Presence of MANEC in the gallbladder is exceedingly rare [2,[13][14][15].…”

“…1 These uncommon tumors represent a special type of cancerous tissue, as it is composed of a mixture of two malignant histologically different tumors. 3 Gastric mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinomas (MANECs) are especially rare, 2 making the current knowledge base surrounding these tumors limited and reliant on a small series of case reports. 4,5 Consequently, diagnostic and treatment options are a topic of ongoing research.…”
