#4659 Current role of systemic lanreotide therapy of patients with advanced, unresectable, non-metastatic paraganglioma / pheochromocytoma (PPGL) sporadic and hereditary

Introduction: Retrospective, performed in prospective manner single-arm, open-label, case series study to assess the efficacy of lanreotide in patients with unresectable, non-metastatic paraganglioma / pheochromocytoma (PPGL) spontaneous or germline mutations.

#4639 Prevalence and characteristics of incidental NET of the Meckel’s diverticula: Retrospective cohort study at a tertiary centre

Introduction: Meckel’s diverticulum is a rare finding in adults but can harbour malignancies such as leiomyosarcoma or neuroendocrine tumours (NET). The clinical presentation and tumour characteristics, including grading, have shown high variability in recent studies for NET.

#4537 The usefulness of circulating fibrosis markers in detection of carcinoid heart disease

Introduction: Carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is a potential serious fibrotic complication in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs), affecting the heart valves. Early detection is crucial to avoid severe manifestations. NT-proBNP is suggested as an initial screening tool in detection of CHD; however, the value of NT-proBNP as a screening tool is questionable.

#4536 Follow-up is not justified in patients with typical lung carcinoids treated with curative intent

Introduction: Typical carcinoids (TC) are well-differentiated neuroendocrine neoplasms of the lung with generally favourable prognosis. Recurrence is rare in TC patients treated with curative intent, yet current ENETS guidelines recommend extensive follow-up, including regular and long-term imaging.

#4492 Utility of NETest 2.0 as a biomarker for neuroendocrine tumours: The Swiss experience – Real-world data

Introduction: The NETest 2.0 is a PCR assay of circulating mRNA, scored 0-100. It has been developed as a biomarker to diagnose neuroendocrine neoplasia (NEN) and to provide tumour prognostic information.
