Abstract
Liver transplantation may provide a survival benefit among patients with diffuse neuroendocrine tumors metastases to the liver. However, due to high recurrence rates, strict selection of patients is critical. Due to the scarcity of available grafts and the lack of level 1 evidence, the recommendations to endorse liver transplantation for extensive liver neuroendocrine tumors metastases warrants ongoing deliberations.
