Anyone have pNET in pancreatic tail & had distal pancreactomy?

Posted by kathyfujii @kathyfujii, Apr 11 11:23am

I've just been diagnosed with a 3.8cm pnet in my pancreatic tail involving arteries and veins in the spleen. Waiting for 2 surgical consultations. Is surgical resection all done laparoscopically. What are recovery experiences.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs) Support Group.

@kathyfujii I also have a grade 2. I live on chemo to address the metastasis primarily to my liver. It also has spread to my bones. My tumors and lesions were and are bigger than yours. I believe that also plays a factor.

I'm scheduled for liver ablation next month. Then distal following week. I'm not sure if I need any medicines treatment after.

@kathyfujii I hope that the procedures go well for you and that meds aren't needed too. Please keep us posted on how things go OK?
