#1888
Introduction: Selective transarterial embolization(TAE) and chemoembolization(TACE),are alternative options to systemic therapies in patients with GEP-NET G1/G2 with advanced locoregional disease and/or unresectable liver metastases
Aim(s): We report clinical-Rx outcomes in 7 patients who received TAE/TACE from Oct 2015 to Oct 2016,to assess the potential benefit of this treatment
Materials and methods: TAE was performed using beads 200 microns in diameter,loaded with 150 mg doxorubicin in TACE.Tumor necrosis was evaluated according to modified RECIST using computed tomography 1 month after treatment
