Neuroendocrine tumors are most often located in the intestine and lungs but they can arise from other areas of the body. Limited data is available on epidemiology and clinical patterns of neuroendocrine tumors in Iran. We analyzed medical records of 34 patients from 2 cancer centers (Emam Khomeini hospital and Omid Charity Cancer Center) in west Azarbaijan province of Iran with neuroendocrine tumors to identify origins of the disease and the demography of the patients.
