Article Synopsis
- Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are diverse tumors found throughout the body, stemming from neuroendocrine cells that develop during embryonic formation.
- A case study highlights a 77-year-old woman with a rare NEN located in the pharynx, marking it as a second metachronous tumor unrelated to a previous NEN diagnosis 20 years earlier.
- The paper emphasizes the rarity of NENs in the oropharynx, discusses their histological features and grading for metastasis potential, and concludes that surgical excision is the preferred treatment for localized cases.
