#2269 Can Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1), IGF-1 Receptor, Connective Tissue Growth Factor and Ki-67 Labelling Index Have a Prognostic Role in Pulmonary Carcinoids?

Introduction: Altered expression of Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1), its receptor (IGF-1R), Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CTGF) and Hypoxia Factor-1 (HIF-1), has been implicated in tumorigenesis. These factors have not been studied systematically in Pulmonary Carcinoids (PCs).

#2219 24 Hour Urinary 5-Hydroxyindoleacetic Acid Levels in Patients with Non-Functioning Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

Introduction: The secretion of urinary 5-Hydroxyindoleacetic Acid (u5-HIAA) by non-functioning PNETs (NF-PNET) has rarely been reported, and the data on the association between u5-HIAA levels and disease burden is scant.

#2158 ALPPS as a Technique to Minimize Small For Size Syndrome after Major Hepatectomy for Neuroendocrine Tumour Metastases.

Introduction: Liver resection has emerged as an effective treatment for secondary liver neuroendocrine tumours. “Associated liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy” (ALPPS) allows resection of liver tumours in 2 steps.
