[10], In 2017, a new WHO classification divided NENs in 3 types of well differentiated NETs (G1 NETs present <2 mitoses/10 HPF, Ki-67 index <3%; G2 NETs present 2 to 20 mitoses/10 HPF, and a Ki-67 index between 3% and 20%; grade 3 neuroendocrine tumors (G3 NETs) present more than 20 mitoses/10 HPF, and a Ki-67 proliferative index >20%), and 2 types of poorly differentiated NECs (small-cell type and large-cell type, with more than 20 mitoses/10 HPF, and a Ki-67 proliferative index >20%).

Solitary type 3 g-NETs arising in normal mucosa may have an aggressive behavior, requiring a radical surgical therapy. These NENs precursor endocrine cells may vary from 1 site to the other, depending on the functional necessities of each site. . [19]. Surgical Pathology . As a result, the marked hypergastrinemia was considered to have been caused by G-cell hyperplasia related to a block in the negative feedback mechanism of somatostatin against achlorhydria with autoimmune gastritis. In accordance with recommended criteria for grading neuroendocrine tumors, mitotic activity assessed within 50 high power fields (10 mm. The .gov means its official.

Consequently, these lesions tend to remain widely underdiagnosed until they progress to easily recognizable neuroendocrine tumors. [8]. [23,24] These are related to hypergastrinemia due to a compensatory hyperplasia of antral G cells, in response to hypo/achlorhydria induced by the loss of specialized glands in the body. 1.

Nomenclature and classification of neuroendocrine neoplasms of the digestive system. Most of the lesions are represented by tumors.[14]. 2004;240:117122. The base of the resected lesion was free of tumor cells. 2009 Sep;54(9):1839-46 [45]. [9], Gastric NENs were classified using the 2010 WHO classification of digestive NENs, which consists of a grading system, independently of the immunoprofile of the proliferating cells: grade 1 neuroendocrine tumors (G1 NETs), grade 2 neuroendocrine tumors (G2 NETs), G3 neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs), and mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinomas. Hypergastrinemia represents the stimulus for hyperplastic proliferation of ECL cells and the development of NETs. Surg Clin N Am 2017;97:33343. Considering the diversity of the endocrine population of cells and the hormonal complexity of the gastrointestinal system, it is surprising that the diseases of the system are so limited. J Pathol. Bethesda, MD 20894, Web Policies government site. 2004;80 Suppl 1:37. To understand the progression of this patient's disease and symptoms, it is essential to understand the pathophysiology. [24], Gastric NENs (g-NENs) are rare tumors and represent 5% to 23% from all gastrointestinal NENs, according to the published data. FOIA MeSH Cells were positive for synaptophysin present in aggregates measuring up to 0.9 mm (Figure 2). 2015 Oct;18(4):720-8. doi: 10.1007/s10120-014-0416-5. Tumors characterized by more than 20 mitoses/10 HPF, and a Ki-67 proliferative index >20% represent NECs. Tumor has non-ECL origin and is not associated with autoimmune gastritis or gastrinoma, being gastrin-independent. ECL cells proliferation may occur in patients with corporeal atrophic gastritis, in patients with MEN-1 syndrome, or in patients with hypo/aclorhydria induced by long-standing proton pump inhibitor therapy. [51] Pancreaticoduodenectomy with total gastrectomy were performed in patient with type 2 gastric NET (case 2). [51]. Cai YC, Banner B, Glickman J, Odze RD. Gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors are diagnosed and staged by endoscopy with biopsy, endoscopic ultrasound, serology of biomarkers, imaging studies and functional somatostatin scans. Haruma K, Sumii K, Yoshihara M, Watanabe C, Kajiyama G. J Clin Gastroenterol. 6B), synaptophysin, cluster of differentiation X2 (corresponding with a primary gastric lesion), and negative staining with cytokeratin 7 and 20, and for prostate-specific antigen. [24] There are solitary and large tumors (>2 cm) arising in any part of the stomach, most frequently in males over 50 years old, unrelated to gastrin levels.

The classifications of neuroendocrine proliferations that lead from enterochromaffin-like cell hyperplasia to neuroendocrine tumors in the stomach are complicated and relatively inaccessible to nonspecialists. Poorly differentiated features, tumoral necrosis, Tumors with neuroendocrine (tumor or carcinoma) and adenocarcinoma components of 30% each, Some use size criteria < 5 mm as a definition for hyperplasia and > 5 mm is the minimum size necessary to diagnose a NET, Some may diagnose NET when grossly there is a polyp / nodule regardless of size in the absence of other explanatory findings, Other criteria have been proposed for microscopic proliferations: if there is nodular growth of ECL cells > 150 microns or if there is a conglomeration of nodules, signs of microinfiltration or new stroma, then the lesion has been proposed to be classified as dysplasia or Tis, Ki67 and mitotic figure count, whichever is higher, Ki67 and mitotic figure count, whichever is lower. Ultrasound-guided liver biopsy confirmed liver metastases from the neuroendocrine tumor, with positive synaptophysin and chromogranin on immunohistochemistry (Fig. Marked hypergastrinemia with G-cell hyperplasia in two autoimmune gastritis patients. Epithelial dysplasia of the stomach with gastric immunophenotype shows features of biological aggressiveness. Vanoli A, La Rosa S, Luinetti O, et al.
