Low-grade Rectal Neuroendocrine Tumor Recurring as Multiple Hepatic Metastasis after Complete Endoscopic Removal: A Case Report

Low-grade Rectal Neuroendocrine Tumor Recurring as Multiple Hepatic Metastasis after Complete Endoscopic Removal: A Case Report

The World Health Organization classified rectal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) as malignant in 2010 owing to their distant metastasis potential. On the other hand, in cases of small rectal NETs (<10 mm), which have a low risk of metastasis, endoscopic removal is the first-line therapeutic option, a...
