#3048 Somatostatin Analogs or Active Surveillance in Sporadic Non-Functioning Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

Introduction: Non-functioning (NF), sporadic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) have usually an indolent behavior, but sometimes show an unpredictable aggressiveness. Surgery is the first-choice for localized tumors >2 cm. Unresectable or metastatic lesions expressing somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) are treated with Somatostatin analogs (SSAs). No evidence of SSAs efficacy exists in tumors ≤2 cm, for which active surveillance has been proposed.

#2977 Predicting Survival in Patients with a Neuroendocrine Tumor of the Small Intestine (SI-NET)

Introduction: SI-NET comprise the largest group of neuroendocrine tumors. Because of their heterogeneity, predicting survival has proven challenging. A nomogram (NG) to assess SI-NET disease specific survival (DSS) has been developed in 2010 by Modlin, et al. based on analysis of retrospective data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database.
