CAUDET-ESTEBAN, Jana; OLMO-GARCIA, María Isabel Del  y  MERINO-TORRES, Juan Francisco. Neuroendocrine ileal tumor with difficult to control carcinoid syndrome. Acta Med Colomb [online]. 2018, vol.43, n.3, pp.161-164. ISSN 0120-2448.

Neuroendocrine tumors are infrequent neoplasms with a complex approach. Currently, more randomized clinical trials are needed to establish the optimal management of patients affected by unresectable liver metastases. A case of metastatic NET in which hepatic transplantation was indicated due to symptoms derived from the carcinoid syndrome that cannot be controlled with the usual medical treatment is provided.

Palabras clave : neuroendocrine; carcinoid; hepatic metastasis; somatostatin analogues; liver transplantation; telotristat; radiometabolic.
