Optimal Surgical Treatment of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

#1049

Introduction: For pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNET), different types of pancreatic resections are available.

Aim(s): The aim was to compared short and long-term outcomes after surgical resection in patients with pNET to select the optimal surgical treatment.

Materials and methods: All resected patients from two academic hospitals between 1992-2013 were included. Primary outcome was the short-term postoperative outcome. Secondary outcome was the long-term functional and oncological outcome. Two groups were compared; enucleation in the head vs. pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and enucleation in corpus/tail vs. distal pancreatectomy(DP). Risk factors for overall complications were identified in multivariable analyses.
