Abstract
Neuroendocrine tumors arise from neuroendocrine system cells, and constitute a heterogeneous group of neoplasms. Usually these tumors cause no symptoms and are diagnosed during several screenings incidentally. In this case; a renal transplantation donor candidate, who had no complaints of any illnesses, was diagnosed with a rare primary mesenchymal neuroendocrine tumor based on the calcified mass found in the examinations. A computed abdominal tomography angiography was carried out in order to view the kidney arteries of the donor candidate. We determined a mass at the small curvature of the stomach, a large part of which had calcifications. The mass was found between the mesenteric fat planes and it caused a thrust in the small curvature of the stomach in cardioesophageal junction. The tumor was resected surgically. The pathological diagnosis was considered as a low-grade, secondary, degenerative neuroendocrine tumor. This case demonstrates the importance of rigorous screening of renal transplant donor candidates renal transplant donor candidates should be screened rigorously. In case report a very rare primary mesenteric neuroendocrine tumor, which was detected incidentally during the screenings, is presented in the light of existing literature.
