Neuroendocrine tumors are cancers that begin in specialized cells called neuroendocrine cells. Neuroendocrine cells have traits similar to those of nerve cells and hormone-producing cells. Neuroendocrine tumors are rare and can occur anywhere in the body, although most occur in the lungs, appendix, small intestine, rectum, and pancreas.

After a cancer diagnosis, many people believe it is too late to quit smoking or using other tobacco products or there is no benefit to quitting. It is never too late to stop using tobacco.
