Surgery after Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) in Patients with Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (GEP-NETs)
#817
Introduction: There are a few case reports on surgery after peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT).
Aim(s): To analyze the results of surgery in patients affected by abdominal neuroendocrine tumor (NET) localizations who previously underwent PRRT to test the feasibility of this sequential treatment.
Materials and methods: We extracted from the institutional tumor registry those patients with histologically confirmed diagnosis of abdominal localizations from NET who underwent surgery after PRRT.
