#2832 Lymph Node Merkel Cell Carcinoma without Primary: Long Term Survival
Introduction: Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare aggressive cutaneous neuroendocrine carcinoma with a high rate of metastasis. Approximately 5% of MCC are found in the lymph nodes (LNs) without a primary tumor on the skin.

#2846 Whole Genome DNA Methylation Profiling Identifies Neuroendocrine Tumor Origin
Introduction: Determining the origin of a neuroendocrine tumor (NET) of unknown primary can be challenging. Liver metastases can originate from any organ in the body, while pulmonary NETs can be metastases but also primary tumors. This especially holds true for Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1 patients, who often have multiple primary pancreatic and intestinal NETs. It is important to know the origin of the primary tumor since resection or ablation is crucial in case of treatment with curative intent. Furthermore, the site of origin determines prognosis, treatment options and eligibility for clinical trials.

#2845 Primary Tumour Resection and PRRT of NEN Stage IV - Are There Differences in Grading?
Introduction: The resection of primary tumours (PT) in patients with stage IV NEN is still a matter of debate. The resection of tumours with a low proliferation index (G1/G2) is more accepted then the resection of high proliferative tumours (G3-NET / G3-NEC).

#2952 Genomic Landscape of Neuroendocrine Neoplasms from Gastrointestinal Tract, Pancreas, Lung, Rare and Unknown Primary Locations
Introduction: There are still few large-scale sequencing data to depict the genomic landscape of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN).

#3081 An Atypical Presentation of a Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of Unknown Origin
Introduction: Neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC) of unknown primary site are uncommon. Most arise from an occult/clinically undetectable primary. Primary NEC of genitourinary tract are rare. High-grade (HG) carcinoms, are rapidly growing and aggressive but usually responsive to platinum-based combination chemotherapy.

#2736 Second Primary Neoplasms in Patients with Neuroendocrine Neoplasms (NEN): DATA from a Retrospective Multicentric Study
Introduction: Patients with sporadic gastro-entero-pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NEN) may exhibit a higher risk of second primary tumors than the general population.

#2835 Primary Hepatic Neuroendocrine Carcinoma: Case Report and Literature Review
Introduction: Primary hepatic neuroendocrine carcinoma (PHNEC) is an extremely rare neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) that originate from the liver. The diagnosis of PHNEC remains challenging because of its rarity, and its lack of unique clinical features. Available treatment options for PHNEC include surgical resection of the liver tumor(s), radiotherapy, liver transplant, transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE), and administration of somatostatin analogues.

#2909 Serotonin-Secreting NeuroEndocrine Neoplasms of the Pancreas: Which Are the Primary Pancreatic Carcinoids?
Introduction: Serotonin-secreting pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (5-HT-secreting pNENs) are very rare. They are characterised by high urinary 5-hydroxyindole-acetic acid (5-HIAA) levels (or high serum 5-HT levels).

#2896 Comparative Genomic Analysis of High Grade Neuroendocrine Neoplasms across Diverse Organs
Introduction: Grade 3 neuroendocrine neoplasms (G3 NENs), if poorly differentiated, have a median survival of 10-19 months. Little is known regarding biologic differences between G3 NENs from different primary sites, most commonly GI and lung.

#2699 Dacarbazine- or Temozolomide-Based Chemotherapy in Metastatic Digestive Neuroendocrine Carcinomas in Post First-line Chemotherapy: A Retrospective Multicentric Study of the French Group of Endocrine Tumours (GTE)
Introduction: First-line chemotherapy in metastatic neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC) is based on etoposide and platinum. However, there is no standard for second line treatment.
