#4510 Follow-up analysis of group nutritional education in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEDNEN Course): A novel approach with proven acceptability

Introduction: Structured group education demonstrates improved outcomes in peri-operative health optimisation and diabetes mellitus. We devised and delivered a novel in person nutrition/dietary education programme for patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) at the Sheffield ENETS Centre of Excellence.

#4118 Adverse events after endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration and fine-needle biopsy in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors: A systematic review

Introduction: Pathological analysis of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNET) is essential for predicting tumor behaviour and patient management. Although endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is the established practice for retrieving tissue, fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) offers possibilities for additional analyses including tumor grading. This systematic review provides a comprehensive evaluation of EUS-FNA and EUS-FNB-related adverse events in pNET.

#3932 Artisan: Prospective phase II trial of TheraSphere Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT) for liver metastases in neuroendocrine tumors (NETs)

Introduction: The liver is the commonest site of metastases and is an independent predictor of poor outcome. SIRT allows delivery of high dose radiation to liver metastases and has shown promise in the management of NETs. We determined the safety and efficacy of SIRT in those with inoperable liver metastases in a prospective study.

#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.
