Prognostic Factors for Recurrence of Sporadic Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors After Surgical Resection

#1265

Introduction: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET) are rare neoplasms with heterogeneous presentation. The diagnosis of malignancy is often difficult, and then further studies may contribute to improve prognosis criteria.

Aim(s): To evaluate prognostic factors of patients with sporadic PNET submitted to surgical treatment.

Materials and methods: We retrospectively evaluated 114 patients admitted to our Hospital. We evaluated tumor diagnosis, patients’ surgical risk and comorbidities, surgery technique, postoperative complications, disease recurrence, and tumor caracteristics.
