In this episode, Dr Charlie Andrews speaks to Professor Mark Pritchard about neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) of the gastrointestinal tract.  You may be asking yourself: 'Do I really need to know about NETs in primary care, aren't they extremely rare?'  The answer to that is a resounding yes, you do need to know about NETs and Mark will tell you why in this episode!   Neuroendocrine cancer is the 10th most prevalent cancer in England, and the second most prevalent cancer of the GI tract, with a rapidly rising incidence (371%) over the last 20 years.  NETs are commonly diagnosed at a more advanced stage due to late diagnosis as the signs and symptoms can be vague, or mimic other more common conditions such as IBS.  Mark provides lots of useful, practical advice about when to suspect this form of cancer in primary care, which patients may be a higher risk, and what to do if you are suspicious about this form of cancer in your patient.   Listen on to find out more.
