Abstract

Gastric and duodenal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are not common; however, there is an increase in the incidence due to increased use of endoscopy. Endoscopic treatment has been applied to treat small NET G1 in the stomach and duodenum. For the endoscopic treatment of NETs, it is necessary to evaluate tumor size, depth of invasion, and lymphatic and distant metastasis. This article will review the current knowledge concerning the endoscopic treatment of gastric and duodenal neuroendocrine tumors.
