- Abstract
The article presents guidelines formulated at the 2007 European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS) Standards of Care Conference on the approach to the morphological diagnosis of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETS). The needs and options for the process include the use of tissue from GEP-NETS obtained from biopsy or the surgical removal of the tissue. A special challenge in the classification is posed by gastrointestinal and pancreatic adenocarcinomas with mixed differentiation.
