Abstract :
[en] The neuroendocrine system is made of endocrine cells disseminated in various organs. In this article, we will focus on the implication of the neuroendocrine system in digestive pathology. First of all, we will review the neuroendocrine tumors in every location and then describe their classification, epidemiology, symptomatology, diagnosis and treatment. Finally, we will consider the implications of the neuroendocrine system in the inflammatory and functional pathology of the digestive tract.
