    1) The document discusses various types of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PANNETs) including insulinomas which can cause hypoglycemic episodes relieved by eating, and gastrinomas which cause Zollinger-Syndrome and severe peptic ulceration. 2) Other tumors mentioned are glucagonomas which cause hyperglycemia, somatostatinomas which cause hyperglycemia, and VIPomas which cause watery diarrhea, hypokalemia, and achlorhydria. 3) Many of these tumors are benign but can become invasive and metastatic, especially when diagnosed.
