World Neuroendocrine Cancer Day 2025: A Closer Look at Easy Signs

Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are a rare type of tumours that originate in the neuroendocrine cells (hormone-producing cells) that are spread throughout the body. That said, NETs most commonly develop in the lungs, pancreas, or digestive tract, often presenting with symptoms similar to other less serious conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety, and even menopause, making it challenging to diagnose them at an early stage. While NETs can be both benign and malignant, the latter requires immediate medical intervention as they can progress to cancer if not treated in time. Unfortunately, as per recent studies, about a third of patients with NETs are diagnosed by chance while being checked for other conditions; in other cases, most patients are diagnosed at advanced stages. This delay in diagnosis necessitates increasing awareness about neuroendocrine tumours and their early signs that can be easily missed, which led to the inception of World Neuroendocrine Cancer Day.
