Typical Bronchial Neuroendocrine Tumours with Advanced Disease: A Misleading Biology

#1796

Introduction: Bronchial NETs are graded by histological classification into ‘typical’, ‘atypical’ NETs or small and large neuroendocrine carcinoma’s. Typical NETs are regarded as being low-grade malignant however metastatic disease can still develop.

Aim(s): We sought to determine the incidence of metastatic typical bronchial NETs and investigate imaging and treatment used in their management

Materials and methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of all bronchial NETs. From those identified as typical NETs, we analysed clinical records in those who presented with advanced disease (Stage IV) to our unit
