RESUMO
ABSTRACT: The incidence of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) has gradually increased over the past few decades with the majority of patients presenting with metastases on initial presentation. The liver is the most common site of initial metastatic disease, and the presence of liver metastasis is an independent prognostic factor associated with a negative outcome. Because NENs are heterogenous neoplasms with variable differentiation, grading, and risk of grade transformation over time, accurate diagnosis and management of neuroendocrine liver lesions are both important and challenging. This is particularly so with the multiple liver-directed treatment options available. In this review article, we discuss the diagnosis, treatment, and response evaluation of NEN liver metastases.
