Overview
If left untreated, patients with VIPoma may progress to develop watery diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, vomiting, skin rash, backache, flushing, and lethargy.[1] Common complications of VIPoma include Metastasis Cardiac arrest from low blood potassium level, and Dehydration. The presence of metastasis is associated with a particularly poor prognosis among patients with VIPoma. VIPoma is associated with a 5 year survival rate of 20% and 3 year survival rate of 40%.[2]
Natural History
- If left untreated, patients with VIPoma may progress to develop watery diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, vomiting, skin rash, backache, flushing, and lethargy.[1]
- VIPoma have a very slow growth rate compared to most malignant tumors.
Complications
Common complications of VIPoma include:
- Metastasis
- Cardiac arrest from low blood potassium level
- Dehydration
Prognosis
- Surgery can usually cure VIPomas. However, in one-third to one-half of patients, the tumor has spread by the time of diagnosis and cannot be cured.
- VIPoma is associated with a 5 year survival rate of 20% and 3 year survival rate of 40%.[2]
