What is the difference between carcinoid tumor and carcinoid syndrome?

What is malignant poorly differentiated neuroendocrine tumors?

Where is a carcinoid tumor located?

Carcinoid tumors often grow very slowly. In children and young adults, carcinoid tumors are most often found in the appendix, called appendiceal carcinoid tumors, or in the lungs, called bronchial tumors. In adults, carcinoid tumors are most often found in the digestive tract.

Is a well differentiated neuroendocrine tumor malignant?

Well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) comprise ~1–3% of pancreatic neoplasms. Although long considered as reasonably benign lesions, PanNETs have considerable malignant potential, with a 5-year survival of ~65% and a 10-year survival of 45% for resected lesions.
