摘要
Primary neuroendocrine tumors of the cystic duct are extremely rare. Only 4 cases have been described to date. We report 2 patients in whom a primary neuroendocrine tumor of the cystic duct was incidentally detected during histological examination following cholecystectomy. With regard to the primary neuroendocrine tumor both patients were asymptomatic at the time of diagnosis. However, histologic examination did not confirm that the neuroendocrine tumors had been completely removed. Both patients underwent a second procedure. They are well after 47 and 49 months, respectively.
