    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

    Sammanfattning : Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumor (SI-NET) is the most common small bowel tumor in Europe and USA, with an annual incidence of around 0.3-1.3/100000 persons. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Curatively Intended Treatment of Colorectal Liver Metastases - Patient, Primary and Metastatic Pattern as Prognostic Factors

    Sammanfattning : Background: Resection and/or ablation of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) is increasingly common and long-term results are improving. In this thesis prognosis of CRLM is studied in a wide perspective, with focus on common clinical factors to consider in preoperative decision making. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Hepatic and Peritoneal Colorectal Metastases : Aspects of Prognosis and Treatment

    Författare :Haile Mahteme; Uppsala universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Although two-thirds of colorectal cancer patients are cured by surgery, approximately 50% of the patients with this disease develop locally recurrent or distant metastases during the course of their illness. The aim of this study was to identify metastatic sites associated with poor prognosis in rectal cancer and then to investigate methods that can prevent the development and growth of metastases and optimise uptake of drugs at these sites in animal models.

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Malignant tumours in the liver are divided into primary liver cancers and liver metastases. Among primary liver cancers, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for 75-85% and is globally the fourth most common cause of cancer related death. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cause of cancer related death. LÄS MER
