Concurrent Diagnosis of a Gastric Neuroendocrine Tumor and an Adjacent Adenoma: An Approach to Diagnosis and Management

Michael Kwan, Chiam Keng Hoong and Rajvinder Singh

The incidence of gastric Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) has been rising with the increasing use of diagnostic gastroscopy. Correctly differentiating a NET from a gastric adenoma is essential prior to embarking on further endoscopic management. Both of these lesions have distinct characteristics that can be identified endoscopically. We report a case of a patient who presented with a concurrent diagnosis of a gastric NET and adenoma and contrast their respective appearances endoscopically and the experience with their subsequent endoscopic resections.
