1. 1. Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors : Surgical Treatment and Follow-up

   Författare :Josefine Kjaer; Olov Norlén; Kjetil Soreide; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor; surgery; liver metastases; hepatic resection; liver transplantation; recurrence; Kirurgi; Surgery;

   Sammanfattning : Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (Pan-NET), are rare, heterogenous and derive from the hormone producing cells in the pancreas. The functioning tumors that overproduce hormones cause clinical syndromes with specific symptoms due to the hormonal production. LÄS MER

3. 2. Monitoring of neuroendocrine tumor patients undergoing systemic therapies

   Författare :Olof Pettersson; Anders Sundin; Håkan Geijer; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Therapy monitoring; NET; neuroendocrine tumor; computed tomography; CT; PRRT; 177Lu-DOTATATE; TGR; tumor growth rate; theranostics; DOTATOC-PET CT; Radiology; Radiologi; Endokrinologi och Diabetologi; Endocrinology and Diabetology; Oncology; Onkologi;

   Sammanfattning : Monitoring of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients undergoing systemic therapies is troublesome as biomarkers capable of detecting tumor responses have been difficult to establish. Changes in the sum of target lesion diameters are used to evaluate the effects of therapy according to the response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST 1.1). LÄS MER

4. 3. Pancreatic Endocrine Tumors and GIST - Clinical Markers, Epidemiology and Treatment

   Författare :Sara Ekeblad; Britt Skogseid; Peter Stålberg; Barbro Eriksson; Rajesh Thakker; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Medicine; Pancreatic endocrine tumor; Gastrointestinal stromal tumor; Neuroendocrine; Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1; Prognostic factors; Temozolomide; TNM staging; O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase; Growth hormone secretagogue receptor; Ghrelin; Medicin;

   Sammanfattning : Pancreatic endocrine tumors and gastrointestinal stromal tumors are rare. Evidence regarding prognostic factors, and in the former also treatment, is scarce. We evaluated the survival and prognostic factors in a consecutive series of 324 patients with pancreatic endocrine tumors treated at a single institution. LÄS MER

5. 4. Theranostics in Neuroendocrine Tumors : Somatostatin Receptor Imaging and Therapy

   Författare :Ezgi Ilan; Mark Lubberink; Peter Bernhardt; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 177Lu-DOTATATE; 68Ga-DOTATATE; 68Ga-DOTATOC; PRRT; Theranostics; PET CT; SPECT CT; Neuroendocrine tumors; Somatostatin receptors; Medicinsk radiofysik; Medical Radiophysics;

   Sammanfattning : Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are characterized by cellular overexpression of somatostatin receptors (SSTR), which allows for the use of radiolabeled somatostatin analogs (SSA) for both imaging and therapy. Because NETs often are diagnosed at a metastatic stage, curative surgery is not possible. LÄS MER

7. 5. Positron Emission Tomography in the Management of Neuroendocrine Tumors

   Författare :Håkan Örlefors; Barbro Eriksson; Mats Bergstrom; Anders Sundin; Karel Pacak; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; Neuroendocrine tumor NET ; carcinoid; endocrine pancreatic tumor EPT ; Positron Emission Tomography PET ; serotonin-precursor; 5-hydroxytrytophan 5-HTP ; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin; Medicin; Medicine;

   Sammanfattning : Neuroendocrine tumors (NET´s) are often characterized by overproduction of peptide hormones. In spite of pronounced clinical symptoms, the tumor lesions can be small and difficult to detect. LÄS MER
