Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT) Radioembolisation with 90 Yttrium in Patients with Unresectable Liver Neuroendocrine Metastases in a Specialized Center. An Initial Report

#1154

Introduction: Most patients with neuroendocrine tumors present liver metastases at some point of the clinical course. Liver directed treatment, such as 90 Yttrium is a method of treatment used in patients with non-resectable liver lesions, which is effective in the control of symptoms and tumor growth.

Aim(s): To describe clinical outcome of patients treated with 90 Yttrium embolisation, in term of toxicity and efficacy.

Materials and methods: A prospectively collected database of 68 patients treated with SIRT spheres, with different etiologies, was analysed. We reviewed 11 patients with liver neuroendocrine metastases, who underwent 90Yttrium embolisation procedures.
