#4668 Predictive factors of postoperative recurrence in patients with neuroendocrine tumour of the lung: Prospective analysis of clinicopathologic features and radiomics

Introduction: In localised and locally advanced forms neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) of the lung radical surgical resection represents the standard of care, several clinicopathologic factors are potentially associated with recurrence of disease.

#4666 Merkel cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin: High response rates to short course palliative radiotherapy – Typical clinical scenarios

Introduction: Merkel cell carcinomas (MCC) are a rare, aggressive skin neuroendocrine carcinomas, with peak incidence in the elderly. MCC often presents as a firm, red/purple painless nodule with a short history of increasing size. Surgery is considered the 1st line treatment but elderly patients, in particular, have comorbidities which may preclude radical surgery requiring reconstruction. In advanced MCC, immunotherapy (IO) is 1st line systemic treatment. Chemotherapy is used 2nd line or if contraindications for IO but can be challenging in an elderly population. There may be an emerging role for PRRT due to the presence of somatostatin receptors on MCC. Radiotherapy (RT) can be used for non-surgical candidates, or those with unresectable or metastatic disease. Adjuvant post-operative irradiation (PORT) may provide additional benefit in risk reduction and improves local control.

#4661 Comparison of preoperative chemotherapy and radio ligand therapy on prognosis after surgical resection for locally advanced or hepatic metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours

Introduction: The role of preoperative treatments in improving the rate of radical resection and survival of either locally advanced (LA) or hepatic metastatic (HM) pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (panNETs) is unclear.

#4645 Radio-guided surgery in use for treatment of early relapse in small intestine neuroendocrine tumours

Introduction: Surgery is the only definitive therapy for neuroendocrine tumours (NET). In number of small intestine NET first symptom is ileus or perforation, lifesaving surgical procedures applied. Such cases have significant risk of recurrence.

#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.
