Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET) are rare neoplasms that comprise 1-2% of all pancreatic tumors. However, they are the second most common solid pancreatic neoplasms. They have a wide range of imaging appearances, but most of the time they are solitary well-marginated enhancing solid masses (1).

Nettles (genus Urtica, family Urticaceae) have been used for treatment of various diseases including urinary tract diseases and renal failure. We conducted a study to show the effect of nettle leaf on improving renal function and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. Serum creatinine level as an indicator of renal function is used for GFR calculation. The study population consisted of 117 ESRD patients, 31 females and 86 males, aged 46-89 years old, 42% diabetic and 41% hypertensive.
