#3926 Epidemiology and outcomes of NET in a Portuguese cancer center

Introduction: NET make up 0.5% of all cancer diagnosis in Europe. They range from indolent to highly aggressive tumors and may cause a wide range of functional symptoms. Phase III trials are difficult because of poor accrual in a heterogenous group of rare tumors.

#3413 Visceral obesity at diagnosis is associated with well-differentiated neuroendocrine neoplasia lower progression free survival

Introduction: The association of well-differentiated gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasia (WD GEP-NEN) with metabolic syndrome (MetS), abdominal obesity, and fasting glucose abnormalities was recently described. Although the role of the intrinsic clinical, pathological, and molecular factors on GEP-NEN prognosis has been extensively studied, the association of adverse outcomes with obesity and metabolic risk factors was not identified so far.

#2258 Cystic Duct Gastrinoma in a Patient with MEN1: A Case Report

Introduction: Gastrinomas are the most common functional enteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumour in MEN1 patients and are located almost exclusively in duodenum. Biliary tree gastrinomas are rare and accounted for 6 cases in literature. Only one of these cases was restricted to the biliary tree without associated duodenal gastrinomas.

#1810 FOXM1 Is Strongly Associated with Cell Proliferation and Is Not Influenced by Metabolic Syndrome in GEP-NETS

Introduction: Gastro-entero-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors(GEP-NETs) and metabolic syndrome(MS) are both increasing exponentially. MS has been associated with several non NET cancers.
