#4648 Analysis of presentation and outcomes of mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (MANEC) – A single centre experience

Introduction: Mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (MANEC) is a rare neoplasm characterised by the coexistence of both adenocarcinoma and neuroendocrine carcinoma components. Due to its rarity, limited data exist regarding its clinical presentation, treatment strategies, and outcomes. This study provides an analysis of MANEC cases from a single centre, providing insights into its clinical features, diagnostic challenges, treatment strategies, and prognosis.

#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.

#4618 The exceptionally rare phenomenon of well-differentiated colon neuroendocrine tumours

Introduction: Colonic neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), excluding rectal NETs, are often described as relatively common and aggressive, with inferior median survival compared to other gastrointestinal (GI) primary sites. However, epidemiological databases may conflate well-differentiated NETs with poorly differentiated NECs, leading to unclear data on prevalence, clinical behaviour, and prognosis of well-differentiated colonic NETs.

#4600 Artificial intelligence in predicting neuroendocrine tumour (NET) outcomes: A model-based prognostic approach

Introduction: Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) vary widely in clinical behaviour, complicating prognosis. Traditional models often struggle with accuracy due to the complexity of NETs. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers tools for enhanced prognostic precision by analysing complex datasets. This study explores an AI-driven approach to predict outcomes in NET patients at Cantonment General Hospital, Pakistan.

#4570 Diagnosis of carcinoid heart disease continues to be late delayed

Introduction: Carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is a serious complication of neuroendocrine tumours. It affects patients with carcinoid syndrome and results from fibrotic deposits on the heart valves. It significantly impacts patient prognosis.
