Abstract:
Optimal management of duodenal neuroendocrine tumors (DNETs) has not been well-defined, especially for DNETs 1-2 cm in size. Recent studies comparing endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and surgical resection demonstrate EMR is safe and effective for these intermediate-sized DNETs. Expert and consensus guidelines could consider updating recommendations to reflect the outcomes of EMR in DNETs and the importance of endoscopic surveillance in these patients to evaluate for local recurrence.

1.2K
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder. This procedure is beneficial for identifying and addressing blockages, gallstones, strictures, and tumors within the biliary or pancreatic systems. ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session.

An Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a diagnostic procedure in which an endoscopist uses a flexible, lighted endoscope to visualize the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The procedure includes visualizing the oropharynx, esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine, the duodenum.
During an EGD, the endoscope can be used to:
