Hello, I am the wife of someone who was diagnosed 2 years ago with an NET on the pancreas head at 43yo. With small liver lesions as well with just watching it/then the last two years. It has now grown to 2.5cm and He’s being sent for more lab work and and a PET scan with follow up to talk about surgery. We were told in the beginning that if it grew to cause problems an needed surgery he would need a whipple. What made yours a modified whipple. I did some research two years ago but I’m anxious currently since the “news” is new again. Thinking we wouldn’t need surgery hopefully ever. Is there anything I should particularly remember to ask?
