Introduction: The vast majority of insulinomas are benign and less than 20 mm. Surgery is considered as standard treatment, but complications are significant. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) represents a novel and minimally invasive approach.

Introduction: Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours are well-differentiated and express type 2 somatostatin receptors (SSTR2). Treatment with somatostatin analogues (SSA) (octreotide or lanreotide) has been a cornerstone in controlling tumour growth for 25 years. Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT), utilising radiolabelled SSA, was introduced in our institution in May 2009 as primarily 2nd line treatment after progression on SSA. The standard PRRT regimen includes 4 cycles of PRRT (7.4 GBq 177Lu-DOTATATE every eight weeks). Re-treatment protocols remain debated.

#3682 Endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation of low-grade insulinomas
Introduction: Insulinomas are rare pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms that may cause significant symptoms and substantially reduce quality of life. In resectable patients, the current treatment recommendation is surgery with either enucleation or resection of all or parts of the gland. This treatment may be associated with high morbidity and long convalescence. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) is a new and minimally invasive treatment for patients with insulinomas.
