Webinaire sur les tumeurs neuroendocriniennes (TNE)
📅 11 décembre 2025 | ⏰ 12 h à 13 h 20 | 💻 En ligne via une plateforme de visioconférence

Les tumeurs neuroendocrines (TNE) sont des cancers rares et complexes, encore peu connus, ce qui entraîne souvent des retards de diagnostic et de prise en charge. Dans le cadre d’un projet financé par le Marathon de l’espoir, une équipe du CHUM et ses partenaires développent un Parcours d’Apprentissage Patient Personnalisé (PAPP-TNE) pour aider les patients à mieux comprendre leur maladie et naviguer dans le système de santé.

👉 Au programme : témoignages de patients et médecins, présentation du parcours d’apprentissage, démonstration de la plateforme numérique, et période de questions.
📌 Le webinaire aura lieu en ligne avec traduction simultanée en anglais.

Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are rare, complex cancers that remain poorly understood, often leading to delayed diagnosis and referral to specialized centres. As part of a research project funded by the Marathon of Hope, a team at CHUM and partners are developing a Personalized Patient Learning Pathway (PAPP-NET) to help patients better understand their condition and navigate the healthcare system.

👉 The event will include patient–physician testimonials, an overview of the learning pathway, a live demo of the digital platform, and a Q&A session.
📌 The webinar will be held online with simultaneous English translation.

🩵 NET Cancer Day Spotlight: Pheo/Para Tumours 🩵

Pheochromocytomas and Paragangliomas (Pheo/Para) are rare neuroendocrine tumours that can release high levels of stress hormones like adrenaline—causing symptoms such as headaches, racing heartbeat, and sweating.

Often called “the great masqueraders,” these tumours are frequently misdiagnosed because their symptoms mimic other conditions.
👉 Average time to diagnosis: about 3 years
👉 Up to 40% of cases are linked to inherited genetic mutations

Early detection can save lives.
Learn more about Pheo/Para tumours, how they’re diagnosed, and why awareness matters this NET Cancer Day.
