#1746 Clinical Outcomes in Small Neuroendocrine Tumours Treated with Intestinal Surgery in Tertiary Centre

Introduction: Patients with Small Bowel Neuroendocrine Tumours (SBNET) may require small bowel surgery either as an emergency or electively.Robust data from Tertiary Referral Centres (TRC) are lacking.

#1744 Predictors of Survival in Patients with Small Intestinal Neuroendocrine Tumours (SINETs) Associated with Mesenteric Desmoplasia

Introduction: SINETs represent 30-50% of small bowel neoplasms with a rising incidence and can be associated with mesenteric fibrosis (MF)

#984 Superior Mesenteric Vein Stenting for Management of Complications of Mesenteric Desmoplasia in Midgut Neuroendocrine Tumors

Introduction: Mesenteric fibrosis is a cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with midgut neuroendocrine tumors (mNETs). It may cause occlusion of the superior mesenteric vein (SMV), which can be associated with development ascites and mesenteric and small bowel varices (SBVs) leading to occult gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding.

#526 Association Between Activin A & NT-pro-BNP in Carcinoid Heart Disease and Intestinal Desmoplasia in Patients with Metastatic Midgut and Pelvic NET

Introduction: Carcinoid heart disease (CHD) involves cardiac valvular fibrosis and volume overload. N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) is released by the myocardium in response to increased wall stress in CHD. Activin A is a member of the TGF-ß superfamily involved in fibrogenesis.

#243 Morbidity and Mortality Associated with Desmoplasia in Midgut Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs)

Introduction: The clinical course of midgut NETs may be heavily complicated by problems related to mesenteric desmoplasia, causing symptoms secondary to mesenteric artery/vein occlusion and bowel obstruction.
