#683 Liver Resection Experience for Metastatic Small Bowel NETs, a Single Center Experience

Introduction: Over the last two decades, the role of surgery in the management of small bowel NETs (SBNET) has evolved. There is growing evidence supporting the role of liver resection for metastatic disease.

#585 Global microRNA profiling of small intestine neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) and establishment of a method to study serum microRNA expression from the same tumors

Introduction: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important post-transcriptional regulatorsin biological processes and function either as tumor suppressors or oncogenes.

#465 Management of an Advanced Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor

Introduction: Whereas an array of treatment modalities have evolved for management of pancreatic NETs, there has been a lack of information regarding a clear algorithm of optimal treatment or an appropriate sequence in which different treatment modalities can be applied to a given patient for optimal results.

#463 Primary Neuroendocrine Tumor of the Parathyroid

Introduction: Parathyroids are derived from third and fourth branchial pouches and neuroendocrine C-cells originate for neighboring fifth branchial pouch. A close ontogenic relation between these embryonal pouches is illustrated in DiGeorge syndrome wherein there is an absence of parathyroid glands and C-cells. It is not known for certain if normal parathyroids contain NE cells. However, NETs of the parathyroid have been reported in two other cases (Medline search: 1966-2011).
