Abstract
The prognosis of primary NETT is statistically significantly related to tumor size >7 cm and to the proliferation index (evaluated by Ki67 expression >10%). The histologic type of the neoplasm, the presence of a paraneoplastic syndrome, the Masaoka staging, the evidence of distant disease, and postoperative radiotherapy also impact prognosis.
