Well-differentiated nonfunctional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are often indolent neoplasms without lymph node (LN) metastasis at diagnosis. Patients with PNETs that are functional or>2cm should have surgical resection as per the standard of care. However, in appropriately selected patients with NF PNETs <2cm who are at low risk of LN metastasis, the extent of surgery and lymphadenectomy could be limited.
