One hundred and five patients were diagnosed with NETs. The mean age of presentation was 57.6 years (R: 18/86). Patients were predominantly female (64%), with an increase in presentation of 50% in recent years. Well differentiated, low-grade GEPNETs were predominant. Metastases at the time of diagnosis were seen in 39% of patients. In 11% of them, tumors were functional (gastrinoma and insulinomas). Carcinoid syndrome was present 17% of the patients and 29% received somatostatin analogues (AS). There were no differences presentation between medullary thyroid carcinoma (two of them were part of a MEN-2 syndrome) and those of bronchopulmonary localization, where the typical carcinoid predominated. Thymic NETs were frequently large at diagnosis and in one patient, the tumor was part of a MEN-1 syndrome. Pheochromocytomas were sporadic, unilateral and were cured with surgery. The ovarian were the least common in our series.
