Abstract
Neuroendocrine tumors of the extrahepatic bile duct (EBNETs) are exceedingly rare neoplasms, whose diagnostic and therapeutic process can be challenging. We present the case of a 58-year-old EBNET patient successfully treated at our Institution, followed by a systematic review of the literature on the surgical management of these rare tumors.
