Colonic L-cell glucagon-like peptide producing tumor
Definition
A neuroendocrine tumor that arises from the colon and produces glucagon-like peptides. Morphologically, it is characterized by the presence of neoplastic cells forming tubular or trabecular patterns.
Also known as colon L-cell glucagon-like peptide-producing NET, colon L-cell glucagon-like peptide-producing neuroendocrine tumor, colon L-cell glucagon-like peptide-producing neuroendocrine tumour, colonic L-cell glucagon-like peptide-producing neuroendocrine tumor, colonic L-cell glucagon-like peptide-producing neuroendocrine tumour, L-cell glucagon-like peptide-producing neuroendocrine tumor of colon, L-cell glucagon-like peptide-producing neuroendocrine tumour of colon — per MONDO
