Abstract
The European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS) guidelines advocate a right hemicolectomy (RHC) only in patients with appendiceal neuroendocrine neoplasms (aNENs) at risk for N+(node positive). The risk is defined using site, size, and grading of tumor as well as mesoappendiceal or lymphovascular invasion.Keywords
