Type III Gastric Neuroendocrine Neoplasms: Is Local Excision Sufficient in Selected Cases?

#2929

Introduction: As per ENETS Guidelines, patients with type III gastric neuroendocrine neoplasms (t-III g-NEN), need to undergo partial or total gastrectomy. Data for less-extensive resections are limited.

Aim(s): To assess whether advanced endoscopic excision [Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) or Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD)] or localized surgical approach [wedge resection (WR)] is sufficient in selected cases.

Materials and methods: Forty five patients (pts) with t-III g-NEN of grade 1 and 2 were included. All patients had appropriate staging at diagnosis and had been under regular endoscopic and radiological follow-up (f-up).
