A Gastrointestinal Neuroendocrine Tumor (GI NET) is a rare type of cancer that originates from neuroendocrine cells in the gastrointestinal tract, which are responsible for producing hormones that regulate various bodily functions. These tumors can occur in different parts of the digestive system, including the stomach, intestines, and pancreas, and can be classified as functioning or non-functioning depending on whether they secrete hormones. Treatment options include surgery, targeted therapies, hormone therapy, and sometimes chemotherapy, depending on the tumor's location, size, and stage.
