23 yo F with family history of hormone problems undergoes upper endoscopy which reveals multiple ulcers in the duodenum, jejunum and antrum. Biopsies for H pylori are negative. A lesion in which of the following locations would most likely explain this finding?

a.-Liver

b.-Exocrine pancreas

c.-Endocrine pancreas

d.-Small intestine

e.-Pituitary

The organ is pancreas. By taking the "E" in MEN, I will say endocrine pancreas.
