Neoadjuvant therapy in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms: A systematic review and meta-analysis

#3426

Introduction: Neoadjuvant therapy plays an increasingly important role in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs), but there is still a lack of systematic evaluation of its efficacy.

Aim(s): To explore the role of neoadjuvant therapy in pNENs.

Materials and methods: We systematically reviewed the literatures published online until October 1, 2021. Meta-analysis was conducted to generate proportion with p value for tumor response, resection rate, R0 resection rate and survival time.
