| Summary: | Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) arise from the diffuse components of the endocrine system A patient with jejunoileal NETs usually presents with vague abdominal complains which may progress to intestinal ob-struction. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are mesenchymal tumors arising from interstitial cell of Cajal or pacemaker cells. GIST is the most common mesenchymal tumor of the abdomen.
