Hello @rogerstc and welcome to the NETs support group on Mayo Connect. I am glad that you found this forum. NETs are a rare form of cancer and it's so very helpful to find others who are walking this journey. I originally came to Mayo Connect when I was facing my third surgery for NETs in the duodenal bulb.

On Connect, we do have other members of this support group who have discussed mesenteric tumors. I would encourage you to read their posts so that you can learn more about their experiences and ask questions. Here are the links to those discussion groups:

--New to NETs

Probably one of the most important things you can do is to consult with a NET specialist as they are specially trained and experienced in treating these rare cancers. Consider having at least one consultation with a NET specialist either in-person or virtually. Mayo Clinic has NET specialists at each of their three locations. Here is a link with information about obtaining a consultation at Mayo, http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63. If for any reason, an appointment at Mayo is not possible, here is a list of NET specialists worldwide https://www.carcinoid.org/for-patients/treatment/find-a-doctor/

For many of us who have NETs, we did not have any symptoms, the tumors were found incidentally and often when a scan or other test was being performed for another reason. Were you having symptoms that led to this diagnosis? From your post, it appears that you have had surgery. Are any other treatments being considered?
