Adrenal Tumors in Patients with Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

#1016

Introduction: The coexistence of adrenal tumors (AT) in patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) has not been extensively studied.

Aim(s): To investigate prevalence and clinical significance in these patients.

Materials and methods: We retrospectively studied 75 patients with PNETs treated at our department between 2004 and 2012. pNETs were classified as proposed by ENETS. The nature of AT was evaluated pathohistologically when possible, or by CT/MRI characteristics indicative for benign/malignant lesion. AT functionality was assessed in all patients. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS software.
