#3058 Diagnosis and Assessment of Effectiveness of Surgical Resection of Small Bowel Neuroendocrine Tumours: The Roles of Circulating MicroRNAs

Introduction: MicroRNAs (miRNA) are small noncoding RNA molecules implicated in the pathophysiology of myriad neoplasms. Clinically useful biomarkers are needed in SB NET to ascertain disease aggressiveness, select treatment strategy, detect early recurrence and monitor response.

#3037 Effects of Debulking Surgery, Transarterial Embolisation (TAE) and Transarterial Chemoembolisation (TACE) on Quality of Life in Patients with Metastatic Ileal and Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours (NETs)

Introduction: Debulking surgery, TAE and TACE procedures are undertaken in patients with metastatic NETs. Reducing the physical burden of disease may prolong survival and can improve the quality of life of patients. However, there is only limited quality of life data available after surgery despite the fact that is has been used routinely for many years.

#2995 Prediction of Symptomatic Mesenteric Mass in Patients with Small Intestinal Neuroendocrine Tumors Using a CT Radiomics Approach

Introduction: A mesenteric mass surrounded by fibrosis is a hallmark feature of small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) that can induce severe abdominal complications. To improve clinical outcome, there is a need for personalized treatment strategies based on accurate prediction of development of abdominal complications.

#2990 Pitfalls in Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Imaging

Introduction: Physiological pancreatico-duodenal DOTA-Exendin-4 uptake in the Brunner’s glands of the proximal duodenum occurs in Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) imaging and is a known potential pitfall.

#2963 Intrinsic Gene Programs in Metastasis-like Primary Subtype Is Associated with Early Metastatic Evolution in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours

Introduction: Three molecular subtypes of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (PanNETs) have been described: insulinoma-like, intermediate and metastasis-like primary (MLP). The Latter is a non-functional tumours with highly metastatic potential. A mouse model of PanNET showed that MLP subtype has two different pathways of progression including stem/progenitor and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. However, the evolution of metastasis in patients requires further studies.
