Aggressive Surgery Improves Long-term Survival in Neuroendocrine Pancreatic Tumors

Abstract

Organ-preserving resections offer sufficient local control in LGC; therefore, radical resections do not seem to be justified. On the other hand, radical resection is indicated even in metastasized patients or in case of loco-regional recurrence. The silent and slow course of the disease facilitates long-term surgical control.
