News covered by Medical Dialogues: Unusual case of biliary neuroendocrine tumor
Dr. Nandita Mohan discusses a research article published in Case Reports in Clinical Radiology about biliary neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), which are extremely uncommon and often misdiagnosed as cholangiocarcinoma due to similar clinical presentation. The report details a 33-year-old patient presenting with obstructive jaundice, whose imaging and pathology confirmed a grade 2 periductal infiltrating NET in the common hepatic duct. The case emphasizes the need to consider biliary NETs as a differential diagnosis in obstructive jaundice, especially when typical cholangiocarcinoma risk factors are absent.
