Abstract:
Early detection of small bowel neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), even when incidentally discovered, is crucial for improving outcomes. This case highlights the importance of recognizing incidental findings during imaging, as timely surgical intervention and multidisciplinary management can prevent progression, mitigate morbidity, and improve survival in these typically indolent but potentially metastatic tumors.
