Objective To discuss the CT appearances and clinicopathologic features of gastrointestinal neuroendocrine neoplasms (GI-NENs). Method The clinical and CT materials of 33 cases of GI-NENs who treated in our hospital from Jan. 2013 to Dec. 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Of the 33 cases, 25 males and 8 females were enrolled. The median age was 62-year old (27–78 years), and the age at diagnosis mainly focused in the 50–70 years period. GI-NENs situation: 12 cases in the stomach, 11 cases in the rectum, 3 cases in the esophagus and colon respectively, 2 cases in the duodenum and appendix respectively. The main clinical symptoms included: abdominal pain in 13 cases, dysphagia and obstruction in 9 cases, hematemesis and hematochezia in 8 cases, abdominal distention in 5 cases, stool and bowel habits change in 5 cases, subxyphoid pain in 3 cases, belching in 2 cases, diarrhea in 1 case, protrusion of the neoplasm when defecation in 1 case, obstructive jaundice in 1 case. Seven cases of G1 grade, 6 cases of G2 grade, 15 cases of G3 grade, and 5 cases of mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinomas were found according to pathologic grading. The immunohistochemical marker: synaptophsin was positive in 31 cases, cytokeratin A was positive in 23 cases, and cytokeratin was positive in 9 cases. The CT appearances of GI-NENs were mainly thickening of the walls and formation of nodules or masses in local area. Moderately homogeneous enhancement (in 20 cases) and irregularly heterogeneous enhancement (in 13 cases) were both commonly seen. In addition, 13 cases of lymphadenophathy, 6 cases of liver metastasis, and 3 cases of lung metastasis were also detected by CT. Conclusions GI-NENs have a preference for elderly male. The most common site of onset is the stomach. Its clinical symptoms and CT appearances are nonspecific, however, the enhancement pattern of the tumors has a certain characteristic.
