Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...

Area of Science:

Gastroenterology
Surgical Oncology
Pathology

Background:

Primary mesenteric carcinoid tumors are exceptionally rare.
Secondary mesenteric involvement by carcinoid tumors is common (40-80%).
Large carcinoid tumors (>2 cm) typically have high distant metastasis rates (80-90%).
