TRUJILLO-DIAZ, Jeancarlos J. et al. Neuroendocrine tumor associate with inflammatory bowel disease: two cases report. Cir. cir. [online]. 2019, vol.87, suppl.1, pp.17-21. Epub 08-Fev-2022. ISSN 2444-054X. https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.18000519.
Introduction:
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have a higher risk of developing gastrointestinal tumors, the adenocarcinoma is the most frequently associated, and neuroendocrine tumor (NET) the most rare.
Clinical cases:
We present two patients, one with Crohn's disease and the other with ulcerative colitis, who present nonspecific symptoms, and after resection of an intestinal lesion, a gastrointestinal NET (GINET) is diagnosed.
Discussion and conclusion:
The GINET have an insidious clinic and these can be confused with those of the IBD. There could be an association between both pathologies; an important role of the chronic intestinal inflammatory process is suggested. The best treatment for GINET is the resection.
