[Diagnosis and treatment options of neuroendocrine tumours].

Abstract:

:Neuroendocrine neoplasms belong to the group of rare tumours. Their clinical importance may be highlighted by their high prevalence despite low incidence. Since survival rate is similar to other progressive neoplastic diseases in metastatic cases, early recognition and appropriate therapy of these neoplasms are equally important. Classification of neuroendocrine tumours is based on their pathologic characteristics according to the 2010 WHO recommendation. Non-functioning tumours cause local symptoms due to their mass effect, while functioning tumours produce well-defined endocrine syndromes. Among laboratory tests, serum chromogranin-A is considered the most important biomarker of both non-functioning and functioning neuroendocrine tumours. Localization of these tumours includes the use of conventional diagnostic imaging, endoscopic examinations, and functional imaging studies. With respect to treatment, elimination of the primary tumour remains one of the most important issues. In advanced cases of the disease metastasectomy, interventional radiologic methods, medical treatment and endoradiotherapy can be used. The aim of this review is to summarize briefly the symptoms, diagnostic methods and treatment options of neuroendocrine tumours. :A neuroendokrin daganatok ritkák; klinikai jelentőségüket alacsony incidenciájuk ellenére magas prevalenciájuk mutatja. A korai felismerés és a megfelelően megválasztott terápia jelentőségére utal, hogy metasztatikus esetekben a betegek túlélési mutatói egyéb előrehaladt daganatos betegségek túlélési adataival megegyeznek. Osztályozásuk jelenleg patológiai jellemzők, a WHO 2010-es javaslata alapján történik. Megkülönböztetünk nem funkcionáló, valamint klinikai szindrómákat okozó, funkcionálisan aktív daganatokat. A nem funkcionáló daganatok növekedésükből származó helyi tüneteket okoznak. A funkcionáló daganatok esetében ezekhez jól meghatározott endokrin szindrómák is társulhatnak. A laboratóriumi vizsgálatok közül alapvető jelentőségű a szérum-kromogranin-A mint biomarker meghatározása. A daganatok lokalizációjában a hagyományos képalkotó és endoszkópos vizsgálatok mellett a funkcionális leképezésnek, izotópvizsgálatoknak van fontos szerepe. A terápia során elsődleges a primer tumor eltávolítása. Előrehaladt betegség kezelésekor metastasectomia, intervenciós radiológiai módszerek, gyógyszeres kezelés és endoradioterápia egyaránt alkalmazható. Jelen összefoglaló célja a neuroendokrin tumorok tüneteinek, diagnosztikus lehetőségeinek áttekintése, valamint a rendelkezésre álló terápiás lehetőségek bemutatása. Orv. Hetil., 2013, 154, 1549–1555.
