#445

Introduction: Current NETs classifications are: WHO, ENETS and AJCC. No consensus exists about which one more accurately predicts NET outcomes.

Aim(s): To compare prognostic capacity for OS and DFS of WHO, ENETS and AJCC.

Materials and methods: Patients diagnosed with small bowel, colorectal and pancreatic NETs from 1996 to 2009 in our institution, with last follow-up 30th September 2011. Kaplan-Meier analyses for OS and DFS were performed based on WHO, ENETS and AJCC. ? coefficient was calculated to evaluate the agreement between WHO, ENETS and AJCC.
