#1347 Evaluation of the Somatostatin, CXCR4 Chemokine and Endothelin A Receptor Expression in a Large Series of Paragangliomas

Introduction: Paragangliomas are predominantly benign tumors, but in some cases invasive growth and also metastasis is observed. Given the limited number of nonsurgical treatment options, novel target structures for diagnostics and therapy of this tumor entity are urgently needed.

#77 Angiogenesis markers after hepatic artery embolization of liver metastases in patients with neuroendocrine tumors

Introduction: In the event of diffuse hepatic metastases, hepatic artery embolization (HAE) can be a successful treatment option in patients with well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (WNET). Although there are suggestions of activation of the angiogenesis by HAE, no information is available about the development of growth factors caused by vascular obstruction with embolization.
