Abstract：Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NENs) are rare, generally indolent tumors with heterogeneous biological behavior. Grade, TNM staging, primary tumor site are main factors that influence the prognosis. Among them,liver metastases hold a critical position. Well,moderate and poorly differentiated tumors have different potential of liver metastases, which should be treated with different strategies. Before any therapeutic procedure is taken,a comprehensive evaluation of tumor’s bio-behavior is mandatory. Even for a well planed MDT strategy, adjustments based on the balancing between risks and benefits, overall survival time and quality of life are often needed.
