Tumeurs endocrines gastro-entéro-pancréatiques (TE GEP). Classifications, présentations cliniques, marqueurs biologiques

  • Chapter
Tumeurs endocrines thoraciques et digestives

Abstrait

Ce chapitre fait le point sur les classifications, les modalités du diagnostic clinique, le bilan biologique des tumeurs endocrines gastro-entéro-pancréatiques (TE GEP) non à petites cellules (1–5). Nous utiliserons le terme de «tumeur endocrine», pour définir des tumeurs bénignes ou malignes. Ce terme est consacré par la dernière classification OMS 2000 des tumeurs digestives, même s’il n’est pas reconnu par la dernière classification OMS 2004 des tumeurs pulmonaires et thymiques (6–8). Le terme «carcinoïde» se référera aux tumeurs bien différenciées. Le terme carcinome sera employé pour définir les tumeurs malignes.
