Yang Xue, 39, is a die-hard fan of Beijing Guoan, and she is one of the members of the fan group "Royal Forest Army" when it was officially established in 2005.
Over the years, she has been frequently present in the home and away games of the Guoan team, and won the Guoan "Fan Attendance Award" in 2023. Yang Xue's husband, Mr. Zhang, works in sports services, and the two often cheer for Guoan together and go abroad to watch games together.

According to Mr. Zhang's social media posts, after the Spring Festival in February this year, Yang Xue felt back pain, and the results of multiple departments in the hospital were normal. On March 10, Yang Xue also went to Jinan to cheer for Guoan's away game. On March 12, Yang Xue was re-examined and found a tumor in her body, but many hospitals were unable to identify the type of pathology and could not formulate a treatment plan. It was not until March 29 that she was diagnosed with high-malignant neuroendocrine small cell carcinoma, which was simultaneously induced by squamous cell carcinoma, with dual-track concurrent and multiple metastases, and had already shown signs of respiratory failure.

What is a neuroendocrine tumor
Data show that by the end of 2022, neuroendocrine tumors have accounted for the second highest incidence of gastrointestinal malignant tumors in mainland China, second only to colorectal tumors. What exactly is a neuroendocrine tumor, and what are its characteristics?
According to reports, neuroendocrine tumors are tumors that originate from neuroendocrine cells. Neuroendocrine cells are a large class of cells in the body that have neuroendocrine functions and can produce a variety of hormones. It is found all over the body, so neuroendocrine tumors can occur anywhere in the body.
Li Ang, Chief Physician of the Department of General Surgery, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University: Neuroendocrine tumors can occur in many organs of our body, such as the lungs, pancreas, and gastrointestinal tract are the most common sites.
Experts say that neuroendocrine tumors are divided into benign tumors, low-grade malignant tumors and significant malignant tumors, the first two tend to develop more slowly and have a relatively low risk compared with other cancer tumors, but the disease can occur everywhere in the body, so the symptoms are varied and easy to be confused with other diseases.
Neuroendocrine tumors are not easy to detect
Postoperative recurrence and metastasis are susceptible
Experts said that neuroendocrine tumors are generally not easy to detect when they appear, sometimes there are no obvious symptoms, and even after surgical resection, the possibility of metastasis and recurrence cannot be ruled out.
Zhu Weihua, Chief Physician of the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Peking University People's Hospital: Neuroendocrine tumors in the abdominal cavity need to be checked regularly after surgery, because it may have some liver metastases.
Expert: Low genetic probability
Regular medical check-ups are recommended
Experts said that patients with neuroendocrine tumors do not have an obvious age range of high incidence, and compared with the cancer at the corresponding site, neuroendocrine tumors have a low degree of malignancy, and under normal circumstances, better results can be achieved through treatment.
So are these diseases hereditary, and how can they be prevented and screened for?
According to experts, most neuroendocrine tumors are scattered and generally not inherited to offspring, but a small number of neuroendocrine tumors will be related to inherited genes, including gene mutations or chromosomal changes, so genetic factors cannot be completely ruled out.
Experts caution that because most neuroendocrine tumors have no obvious symptoms, regular medical checkups are very important for early screening of such diseases.
In addition, if there is diarrhea or hypoglycemia of unknown etiology, the presence of neuroendocrine tumors should be considered, and screening should be carried out in the endocrinology department or oncology department.
