Q. Please check my reports and tell me if it is cancer or not.
Hello doctor,
I am a 67-year-old male patient. My report says, "neuroendocrine tumor well-differentiated benign against a background of chronic duodenitis." Kindly let me know whether it is cancer or not. I have no other health problems.
Thank you doctor,
I am sending the IHC markers report. Kindly let me know whether it is cancer or a normal one, whether it is a major or minor problem, and if it is permanently curable. I am sending all the reports. Please let me know in detail.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I have gone through all the reports attached by you.
The Ki-67 is 19 percent. So, it will be classified as a neuroendocrine neoplasm. Kindly note that above 20 percent it is classified as carcinoma requiring chemo. Since it below 20, a close watch can be considered. But you should undergo staging workup such as CT scan of abdomen, pelvis, and chest as a baseline.
