Tumour Size Is Not a Reliable Criterion for Resection of Patients with Non-Secreting Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours: Results of an International, Multi-Centre, Operative Cohort

#1777

Introduction: Small pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (pNETs) present a management dilemma between surveillance and resection.

Aim(s): To assess the malignant characteristics of small pNETs in a retrospective, multicentre, operative patient cohort.

Materials and methods: Patients were identified from 5 hospitals using inclusion criteria of non-functional, non-familial, resected pNETs of all stages and grades. Logistic and cox regression were performed using SPSSv22.
