Between 1987 and 1996 a total of 25 patients with proved Zollinger‐Ellison syndrome (ZES)
have been treated in our department. If preoperative imaging studies did not show diffuse …

Pancreatic endocrine tumors are rare, yet can cause significant morbidity due to excessive
secretion of hormones. Octreotide is effective in reducing the plasma concentrations of many …

Abstract From 1971-1986, 24 patients were diagnosed as having Zollinger-Ellison syndrome

Prognosis of gastrinoma patients with metastases to lymph nodes only is uncertain, and the
true nature of isolated nodal gastrinomas remains controversial. The purpose of this study …

Exploratory laparotomy and a search for gastrinomas was performed in 52 patients with the

In 1955 Zollinger and Ellison postulated a causal relationship between recurrent ulcer
disease, gastric hypersecretion, and non-B-cell pancreatic endocrine tumors. ¹ Like other …

Background & Aims: The identification of precursor lesions has a great impact on the
understanding of tumorigenesis. Precursor lesions of endocrine tumors are known to occur …
