Liver Resection for Neuroendocrine Tumors Liver Metastases in Transplantable Patients within the Milan Criteria

#2274

Introduction: Liver transplantation (LT) has been prosed as a curative treatment for metastatic gastro-entero-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) but there is a lack of consensus on its real benefit when compared with hepatectomy.

Aim(s): We sought to analyze survival outcomes of patients undergoing liver resection for GEP-NETs liver metastasis (NELM) according to the Milan Criteria proposed to select patients with GEP-NET candidate to LT.

Materials and methods: A multicentric database including seven tertiary referral centers was used to identify patients submitted to hepatectomy for NELM between January 1990 and December 2014. We identify patients fulfilling Milan Criteria: well-differentiated NET (Ki-67
