Unique ID: D003969
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D003969
Annotation: coord IM with PANCREATIC NEOPLASMS (IM)
Scope Note: A tumor that secretes VASOACTIVE INTESTINAL PEPTIDE, a neuropeptide that causes VASODILATION; relaxation of smooth muscles; watery DIARRHEA; HYPOKALEMIA; and HYPOCHLORHYDRIA. Vipomas, derived from the pancreatic ISLET CELLS, generally are malignant and can secrete other hormones. In most cases, Vipomas are located in the PANCREAS but can be found in extrapancreatic sites.
Entry Term(s): Diarrheogenic Islet Cell Tumor; Diarrheogenic Tumor; Pancreatic Cholera; Pancreatic VIPoma; VIP-Secreting Tumor (VIPoma); Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP) Tumor; Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide-Producing Tumor; Verner-Morrison Syndrome; Vipoma Syndrome; WDHA; WDHA Syndrome; WDHH; Watery Diarrhea Syndrome; Watery Diarrhea with Hypokalemic Alkalosis; Watery Diarrhea, Hypokalemia, and Achlorhydria Syndrome
