Background: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (panNETs) are heterogeneous, with grade (G) defined by Ki67 proliferation index (<3% G1, 3-20% G2, and >20% G3) or mitotic rate. Previous studies suggest that baseline Ki67 index may be confounded by biopsy site (primary or metastasis), biopsy technique and primary tumor size. Ki67 differences leading to grade discordance in PanNETs at baseline is relatively understudied. Our study aims to evaluate grade discordance in synch...
