- Abstract: Objective To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of well-differentiated rectal neuroendocrine tumor(RNET).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted using the clinical data from 83 patients with well-differentiated RNET from August 2017 to December 2021,including clinical manifestations,endoscopy,endoscopic treatment,postoperative complications,postoperative pathology,follow-up and prognosis.Pathological results according to the 2019 World Health Organization(WHO)Classification of digestive system tumors,83 patients were divided into G1 stage group(72 cases)and G2 stage group(11 cases);Based on the number of tumors in the patient,83 patients were divided into two groups:single RNET group(77 cases)and multiple RNET group(6 cases),the expressions of chromogranin A(CgA),synapsin(Syn)and CD56 were compared among different groups.Results Based on pathological findings in the group,G1 stage group CgA positive rate was significantly higher than that of G2 stage group,the difference was statistically significant(χ2 = 4.23,P = 0.040);Based on the number of tumors,multiple RNET group CgA positive rate was significantly higher than that of single RNET group,the difference was statistically significant(χ2 = 5.74,P = 0.017).It was no significant difference in Syn and CD56 between the two groups(P>0.050).Conclusion Well-differentiated RNET has no specific clinical manifestations.It is mostly isolated in G1 stage and single RNET.ESD is safe and has a good prognosis,the positive rate of CgA is higher in G1 stage patients,and the positive rate of CgA is higher in patients with multiple RNET.
