title="Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor \– a case report",
abstract=" Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are rare neoplasmas of this organ. The majority of them are tumors without hormonal activity. In the present paper we present a case of  a 38-year-old female patient with abnormal pancreatic mass. The somatostatine receptor scintigraphy (SRS) displayed focal radioisotope uptake in the pancreatic head. In positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography (PET/CT) examination increased glucose metabolism in the pancreatic head, were found. In this patient surgical removal a pancreratic mass was done, and histopathological examination revealed well differentiated neuroendocrine tumor. We would like to emphasize that in these case SRS and PET/CT imaging can be effectively helpful especially in conjunction with other useful diagnostic methods which are handled in pancreatic tumor. We put emphasis on corrected and extended histopathological raport which determines further management according to prognostic and prediction factors of patients with neuroendocrine pancreatic tumor.",
