Περίληψη:
Appendiceal neuroendocrine neoplasms (ANEN) are mostly discovered
coincidentally during appendicectomy and usually have a benign clinical
course; thus, appendicectomy alone is considered curative. However, in
some cases, a malignant potential is suspected, and therefore additional
operations such as completion right hemicolectomy are considered. The
existing European Neuroendocrine Tumour Society (ENETS) guidelines
provide useful data about epidemiology and prognosis, as well as
practical recommendations with regards to the risk factors for a more
aggressive disease course and the indications for a secondary operation.
However, these guidelines are based on heterogeneous and retrospective
studies. Therefore, the evidence does not seem to be robust, and there
are still unmet needs in terms of accurate epidemiology and overall
prognosis, optimal diagnostic and follow-up strategy, as well as
identified risk factors that would indicate a more aggressive surgical
approach at the beginning and a more intense follow-up. In this review,
we are adopting a critical approach of the ENETS guidelines and
published series for ANEN, focusing on the above-noted grey areas.
