#4641 Case series: Tuberous sclerosis associated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours at a tertiary centre

Introduction: Tuberous sclerosis (TSC) is an autosomal dominant condition which can increase the risk of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (PanNETs) (1). Patients with TSC undergo screening for renal tumours which may include pancreatic imaging (2). There are currently no screening guidelines for PanNETs in patients with TSC.

#4637 Non-functional retroperitoneal paraganglioma in a young patient: A case report

Introduction: Paragangliomas are neuroendocrine tumours arising in the parasympathetic nervous system, outside the adrenal gland. Retroperitoneal location is extremely rare. Non-functional paragangliomas often represent a diagnostic challenge.

#4593 Excellent response to Ac-225 DOTATATE therapy in a patient with small cell lung cancer

Introduction: Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is a validated treatment for patients with NETs overexpressing somatostatin receptors (SSTR). IHC analysis indicates that up to 50% of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) tumours are SSTR2 positive and thus can be targeted by SSR imaging and PRRT. Therapy with α-emitting radionuclides, such as Ac225, may offer several advantages over β-emitters by having higher energy transfer and more effective cancer cell death.

#4567 Malignant pheochromocytoma with late distant metastases and secondary hypercalcaemia

Introduction: Pheochromocytoma is a rare neuroendocrine tumour of the adrenal medulla. Malignant variants occur with a very low frequency and can be diagnosed only after the spread of distant metastasis.
