#3886 Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma subtyping based on NEUROD1, ASCL1, POU2F3 and YAP1 expression

Introduction: Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) accounts for 1-3% of all types of lung cancer and is, similar to small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), a high-grade tumor with poor prognosis. pRb can also be used to subclassify LCNEC into SCLC-like and NSCLC-like. SCLC can be classified in 4 transcriptomic subtypes (NEUROD1high, ASCL1high, POU2F3high, YAP1high), which may have therapeutic implications. It is unclear whether these subtypes are also found in LCNEC and if they correlate with pRb expression.

#3052 Unique Metastatic Patterns in Neuroendocrine Neoplasms of Different Primary Origin

Introduction: Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) can originate in different organs, e.g. in the gastro-enteric tract (GE), pancreas (P) or lung (L). Despite similarities in clinical and pathological characteristics in tumors of another origin, differences also exist. This might apply to metastatic patterns as well, but only limited data is available so far.

#3015 Biopsy Specimen Diagnosis in Pulmonary Carcinoids, A Shot in the Dark

Introduction: Pulmonary carcinoids (PCs) are rare well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors, which can be separated into typical carcinoid (TC) and atypical carcinoid (AC). Advised treatment for local carcinoid disease is surgical resection using lobectomy, while parenchymal saving strategies such as sub-lobar or endobronchial resection might be considered for TC. In general, pre-operative diagnosis using a (transbronchial/transthoracic) biopsy sample is performed to demonstrate malignancy. However, TC and AC classification can solely be performed on surgical resection specimens, which may challenge pre-operative treatment decisions.

#2922 Clinicopathological Characteristics of Borderline Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Neoplasms

Introduction: According to the WHO 2015 classification pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are subdivided in carcinoids and neuroendocrine carcinoma (small cell lung carcinoma and large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC)), based on the presence of necrosis and mitotic index (MI). However, in some NENs a discrepancy is observed between grade of differentiation and proliferation rate.
