Abstract

Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PNETs) are rare but can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality. PNETs can be difficult to diagnose and have a propensity for metastasis before their diagnosis is established. To this end, many PNETs do not become apparent until late in their clinical course. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has become the modality of choice for detecting these lesions due to its high tumor detection rate. Additionally, therapeutic techniques have arisen from EUS which allow for the treatment of PNETs. Overall, EUS has become a powerful diagnostic and therapeutic modality for addressing pancreatic lesions such as PNETs. In this perspective article, we provide an overview of the therapeutic potentials of EUS in the management of PNETs.
