Popis:	Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (PNETs) are rare. They are generally accepted to be slow-growing and have an indolent course. These tumours can be non-functioning or functioning, consisting of a biochemically heterogeneous group of tumours including insulinomas, gastrinomas, carcinoids and glucagonomas. Although surgery remains the mainstay of treatment, controversy still exists especially for non-functioning tumours
