FERREIRA-BOGADO, Miguel  y  MOSQUEIRA-LARA, María Nilda. DUODENAL SOMASTOTINOMA. Rev. Cir. Parag. [online]. 2017, vol.41, n.1, pp.27-28. ISSN 2307-0420.  https://doi.org/10.18004/sopaci.abril.27-28.

About 70% of well-differentiated endocrine tumors arise from the gastrointestinal tract. Duodenal well-differentiated tumors account for only 2.6% of all neuroendocrine tumors. Somatostatinomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) with an incidence of 1 in 40 million. These un usual tumors arise predominantly in the pancreas and peripancreaticduodenum.

Neurofibromatosis type I is an autosomal dominant disease, the mutation in the tumor suppressor gene NF1 favors the appearance of neoplasms in these patients.

Palabras clave : Neuroendocrine tumor (NET); Somatostatinoma.
