Abstract
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) are a rare subset of pancreatic neoplasms with diverse biological behavior and clinical presentations. Traditional treatment approaches, such as surgery and targeted therapies, have significantly improved outcomes. However, advancements in molecular biology, immunotherapy, and minimally invasive techniques have ushered in a new era of treatment possibilities. This manuscript explores the emerging modalities in PNET management, emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary approach tailored to individual patient profiles.
