Introduction to NETs
 NETs arise from cells which produce and secrete hormones
 Most NETs are slow growing and malignant, with metastatic
potential
 Carcinoid, APUDomas
 Common sites of origin are:
 GI tract
 Lungs
 Pancreas
Burns WR, Edil BH (March 2012). "Neuroendocrine pancreatic tumors: guidelines for management and update". Current Treatment Options in Oncology.
13 (1): 24–34. PMID 22198808
Pancreatic NETs Overview
 PNETs are rare, slow-growing
neoplasms
 Symptoms from excess
hormone production or
mechanical problems
 7% of all NETs are found in
pancreas
 1-2% of all pancreatic tumors
 Historically – islet cell tumors
Amin, Mahul B., ed. (2017). "30 - Neuroendocrine Tumors of the Pancreas". AJCC Cancer Staging Manual (8 ed.). Springer. pp. 415–416. ISBN 978-3-319-
40617-6.
ORIGIN
 Debated
 Arise from pluripotent
stem cells in pancreatic
ductal acinar system
and not from
pancreatic islet
themselves
Schimmack S, et al: The diversity and commonalities of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, Langenbecks Arch Surg 396:273– 298, 2011.
Epidemiology
 Incidence rate of 0.4 cases per 100,000
 Incidence is increasing
 Males = Females
 Age – 60 – 80 years
 5% familial association – MEN1, VHL, TS, NF1
 Tend to be diagnosed at a younger age
Family history is the only identified risk factor
Fraenkel M, et al: Epidemiology of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours, Best Pract Res Clin Gastroenterol 26:691–703, 2012.
Potential Reasons for Increased
Incidence and Prevalence in PNET
• 0.17-0.43 cases / 100,000
• Exact reasons are unknown but may include:
– Potential underdiagnoses and underreporting in the past
– Improved diagnostic techniques
– Increased awareness of NET in the community
Fraenkel M, et al: Epidemiology of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours, Best Pract Res Clin Gastroenterol 26:691–
703, 2012.
Pathology
& Staging
 Well circumscribed solitary masses
 Majority are well differentiated
 Potential to grow & metastasise > malignant
 Likelihood of metastatic spread is very low , benign has been used as
a classification variable
 Malignant- invades locoregionally, has metastasised distantly or to
regional lymph nodes, greater than 2 cms insize, displays vascular,
lymphatic or neural invasion or has proliferative tndex of greater than
2 %
Klöppel G, et al: The gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine cell system and its tumors: the WHO classification, Ann N Y Acad Sci 1014:13–27, 2004.
Biologic Behaviour
GRADE AND STAGE
Grading system for PNETs
Good
Poor
Ki-67
 Antigen KI-67 also known as Ki-67
or MKI67 is a protein that in
humans is encoded by the MKI67
gene
 Ki derived from the city of
discovery – Kiel, Germany.
 Associated with cell replication
and ribosomal RNA transcription.
 Present during all active phases of
cell cycle
 Absent from resting cell – G0
Staging – TNM (AJCC 2010)
Staging
Classification Based on
Functional Activity
Functioning Non-functioning
PNETs may or may not have secretory symptoms
Secretory symptoms related to specific hormones
Tumors (nonfunctional) may secrete peptides but cause no
clinical symptoms
Non-functional PNETs
 Most PNETs ~75%
 Often found incidentally
 Symptoms relate to tumor’s mass effect – abd pain,
vomiting, weight loss, jaundice, pancreatitis
 Tend to be larger than other PNETs
 Nodes involved at time of diagnosis
Functional Tumors
Pancreatic NETs Types
Relative frequency: Asymptomatic >Insulinoma >
Gastrinoma > Glucagonoma > VIPomas >
Somatostatinoma > Others
Systematic Approach to
Diagnosing NET Is Needed
 History and physical exam
 Biochemical markers (serum, tissue, urine)
 Specific tests
Imaging
Computed tomography scan (CT)/ Magnetic
Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Nuclear Imaging
Endoscopic ultrasound
Insulinoma
 1-2% of all pancreatic tumors
 Small <2cms
 Solitary
 Rarely malignant
 5 year OS- 56%, 10 year OS -
29%

Endocrinol (Paris) 74:523–533, 2013.
Okabayashi T, et al: Diagnosis and management of insulinoma, World
J Gastroenterol 19:829–837, 2013.
Diagnosis
 Whipple’s Triad
 plasma glucose- 40-50mg/dl
 Fasting induced Neuroglycopenic symptoms of
hypoglycaemia
 Resolution of symptoms after meals
 Plasma gluose, insulin,
 Proinsulin and C-Peptide over 72 hour fast
 This panel can detect 90%
Ito T, et al: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors: clinical features, diagnosis and medical treatment:
advances, Best Pract Res Clin Gastroenterol 26:737–753, 2012.
Gastrinoma
 1955, Zollinger and colleagues
 Sporadic- 67%, familial- 33%
 Mostly solitary
 60% malignant- spread to regional lymph nodes by time
of diagnosis
 ^ gastrin -> recurrent peptic ulcers, diarrhoea, reflux
esophagitis.
 Diagnosis-
 Thickened mucosal folds – hallmark
 Demonstration of hypergastrinemia – fasting serum gastrin
levels (10 times)
 Abnormal gasric acid secretion- gastric pH <2
 Secretin or glucagon stimulation test

Anlauf M, et al: Sporadic versus hereditary gastrinomas of the duodenum and pancreas: distinct clinico-pathological and epidemiological
features, World J Gastroenterol 12:5440–5446, 2006.
Gastrinoma triangle
 Apex- junction of
cystic duct and CBD
 INF- 2nd and 3rd
part of duodenum
 MEDIAL- jn of head
and body of
pancreas
90% of gastrinomas lie
in this anatomic
location
Howard TJ, et al: Anatomic distribution of pancreatic endocrine tumors.
Am J Surg 159:258-264, 1990
Glucagonoma
 ~400 cases
 Large size >6cms
 Solitary
 Symptoms- glucose intolerance, migratory necrolytic
erythema, weight loss
 Diagnosis- elevated glucagon levels + enhancing
pancreatic mass on CT
 ~60% will have liver mets at diagnosis(Kulke et al)
 Case series of 23 gluganomas – 5 yr survival was 75%
(regardless of treatment)

Kindmark H, et al: Endocrine pancreatic tumors with glucagon hypersecretion: a retrospective study of 23 cases during 20 years, Med Oncol 24:330–337, 2007
Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide
secreting neuroendocrine tumor
 Solittary, intrapancreatic tumor
 >50% malignant
 VIP – neurotransmitter & intestinal secretagogue
 “pancreatic cholera” Verner-Morrison syndrome
 Symptoms – high volume watery diarrhoea leading to
 metabolic acidosis
 Achlorhydria
 Hypokalemia
 Diagnosis – elevated plasma VIP, pancreatic tumor on
imaging
Renal failure
secondary to
hypovolemia
Verner JV, et al: Islet cell tumor and a syndrome of refractory watery diarrhea and hypokalemia, Am J Med 25:374–380, 1958.
Fabian E, et al: Diarrhea caused by circulating agents, Gastroenterol Clin North Am 41:603–610, 2012.
Somatostatinoma
 Less defined clinical syndrome than other PNETs
 Symptoms – glucose intolerance, cholelithiasis, weight
loss, diarrhoea, steatorrhoea, anemia
 Located in the pancreas (56%) or duodenum
 Duodenal Ssomas are associated with NF-1 in 50% of
cases
 Less likely to be malignant

Williamson JM, et al: Pancreatic and peripancreatic somatostatinomas, Ann R Coll Surg Engl 93:356–360, 2011.
Pancreatic Polypeptide- secreting
neuroendocrine tumor
 PNETs predominantly secreting PP- extremely rare
 Functional/non-functional – debated
 No specific syndrome
 Intermittent abdominal pain, pancreatitis, may develop
glucose intolerance
 MEN-1 – multifocal and malignant
 Fasting PP levels > 3 times -> presence of PNET and it
will likely be large enough to be detected on ct
Kuo SC, et al: Sporadic pancreatic polypeptide secreting tumors (PPomas) of the pancreas, World J Surg 32:1815–1822, 2008.
Mutch MG, et al: Pancreatic polypeptide is a useful plasma marker for radiographically evident pancreatic islet cell tumors in patients with multiple endocrine
neoplasia type 1, Surgery 122:1012–1020, 1997
Biochemical Assessment and Monitoring
for PNETS
1. Chromogranin A(CgA)- correlate with tumor burden
 CgA can be used as a marker in patients with both functional
and non-functional pancreatic endocrine tumors
 Decreses post treatment – favourable outcomes
 Rising levels may suggest recurrent or progressive disease
2. Pancreatic polypeptide- where CgA is negative
3. Pancreastatin (PST)- post translational product of CgA.
More powerful prognostic test in surgically managed PNET.
 Pts with elevated PST pre and post-op- 90% chance of
progression and 40% risk of death within 5 years.
4. Neurokinin A & Synaptophysin more diagnostic and less
prognostic.
Imaging and
Localisation
CECT
 valuable for
primary/regional/metastatic
 80-100% sensitive for tumors >
2cms
 Capturing the vascular blush in
the arterial phase is critical for
identification and differentiation
 More sensitive for liver mets
Both PNET and their metastasis tend
to be hypervascular and best seen in
arterial phase.
Arterial phase of a contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen showing an early
enhancing pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor in the head and uncinate process of the pancreas
(white arrow), with a necrotic node medially (red arrow).

Arteriographic demonstration of an insulinoma. A, Selective injection into
the specific dorsal pancreatic artery demonstrates the tumor precisely. B,
Insulinoma with triphasic enhancement on CT. The mass in the pancreatic
body (arrow) demonstrates early and prolonged enhancement

Imaging features of pancreatic neoplasms. JBR-BTR 84:239–249, 2001.)
MRI
 Second line
 Superior delineation of hepatic metastasis is required
 Renal failure
Hypo intense (low signal intensity) on T1
Hyper intense (high signal intensity) on T2
In one large series of insulinomas, contrast-enhanced MRI identified
all lesions larger than 3 cm, 50% of lesions 1 to 2 cm, and no lesions
smaller than 1 cm.
Overall sensitivity for PNET 85%

Boukhman MP, Karam JM, Shaver J, et al: Localization of insulinomas. Arch Surg 134:818–822; discussion 822–
813, 1999.
Endoscopic Ultrasound
 Overall sensitivity of 93%
 High sensitivity for small
tumors less than 3cms
 More in head region
 Allows FNAC for pathologic
diagnosis
 FNAC accuracy – 90%

Nuclear imaging
Somatostatin receptor
scintigraphy
 Diagnosis and Surveillance
 To determine if pt will
benefit from PRRT
 SSTR 1-5
 Most common SSTR2 – well
deferentiated NET
 OctreoScan
 Radiotracer indium-111-
DPTA-octreotide
 SPECT + OctreoScan
68Ga-PETCT / DOTATOC
 Gallium-68
 DOTATOC - 68Ga-DOTA-
Tyr(3)-octreotide
 DOTANOC
 DOTATATE
 Variation in ligand affinity
for SSTR subtypes but not
clinically significant
 Superior to conventional
imaging
Comparison of CT, MRI , and
SRS in a patient with Zollinger-
Ellison syndrome. Neither the
CT scan (top) nor MRI (middle)
localized a gastrinoma. SRS ,
however, showed a focus in the
left lobe of the liver.
Intra-op usg
Localisation of insulinoma
 Arterial stimulation venous sampling (94-100%)
 calcium is injected successively into gastroduodenal,
proximal splenic, superior mesenteric and proper hepaic
arteries
 After each injection, venous blood is sampled from
hepatic veins at 30, 60 and 120 seconds.
 Positive localisation corresponds to 2 fold increase
hepatic vein insulin levels
Surgical Management
RESECTION OF THE PRIMARY TUMOR : SURGICAL
CONSIDERATIONS
Indications for Surgery
1. Functional, symptomatic
2. Isolated , G1 and G2 PNET greater than 2 cms
3. Patients with metastatic disease where all visible mets
can be resected
4. Palliative resection and hepatic debulking may be
considered for those pts with symptomatic advanced
disease when liver is the only focus of distant
metastasis
~80% of liver mets are resectable
Small, Non-functional PNET
 Serial imaging -> progression
 Lee and colleagues(2012), compared patients with non
functional PNET
 Non-operatively(77) – no change in tumor size
 Resection(56) – 9% had positive nodes (2.4cms)
 Kuo and colleagues(2013) 27.3% nodal mets and 9.1%
distant mets – reasonable number to offer patients
curative surgery
 NCDB – improved OS >5 years with resection
 2017 BJS – active surveillance of patients affected by
sporadic, small, asymptomatic NF-PNETs may…
Enucleation
 Limited procedure
 Low complication rates
 Better results than radical procedures in terms of blood
loss, length of surgery, less panc. Insufficiency
 Laparotomy/laparoscopically
Enucleation
 Indications-
 benign
 Small, isolated tumors < 2 cm
 2-3mm away from mpd
 Located near surface of pancreatic parenchyma
PNETs- Body and Tail
PNETs – head
Median/central
Pancreatectomy
Management of metastatic
disease
 Lymph node mets are associated with increased recurrence.
 Recent studies suggest that a more aggressive approach may
benefit
 Hepatic metastasis- surgical debulking of hepatic disease is
prudent, in whom 80-90% reduction of metastatic disease is
made. Formal segmental resection is gold standard
 Other techniques – radiofrequency/microwave ablation, hepatic
artery embolization (<5cm)
 Liver transplant – 5 yr survival – 68%
 Predictor of poor outcome- location of primary in pancreas or
duodenum, need for upper abd exentration and hepatomegaly

hormonal production, J Gastroenterol 47:678–685, 2012.
Hashim YM, et al: Regional lymphadenectomy is indicated in the surgical treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
(PNETs), Ann Surg 259:197–203, 2014.
Non surgical management
 Goal – improve quality of life, extend survival
 Insulinoma – diazoxide(200-600mg/day)
 ZES – PPI – titrated to effect
 Somatostatin based analogues – first line for nf met
 Octreotide
 Lanreotide
 Peptide receptor radionucleotide therapy- approved only in Europe
 Systemic chemotherapy –
 CAPTEM- Capecitabine temozolomide
 Grade 3 – cisplatin + etoposide
 Biologic therapies –mTOR inhibitors – EVEROLIMUS
RADIANT-3 trial – tumor shrinkage - 68%
 Sunitinib

  • 1. Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (Insulinoma) DR JUNISH BAGGA SR – GI SURGERY GUIDE – DR SATPAL SINGH VIRK PROF. & HEAD. GI SURGERY. DMCH
  • 2. Introduction to NETs  NETs arise from cells which produce and secrete hormones  Most NETs are slow growing and malignant, with metastatic potential  Carcinoid, APUDomas  Common sites of origin are:  GI tract  Lungs  Pancreas Burns WR, Edil BH (March 2012). "Neuroendocrine pancreatic tumors: guidelines for management and update". Current Treatment Options in Oncology. 13 (1): 24–34. PMID 22198808
  • 3. Pancreatic NETs Overview  PNETs are rare, slow-growing neoplasms  Symptoms from excess hormone production or mechanical problems  7% of all NETs are found in pancreas  1-2% of all pancreatic tumors  Historically – islet cell tumors Amin, Mahul B., ed. (2017). "30 - Neuroendocrine Tumors of the Pancreas". AJCC Cancer Staging Manual (8 ed.). Springer. pp. 415–416. ISBN 978-3-319- 40617-6.
  • 4. ORIGIN  Debated  Arise from pluripotent stem cells in pancreatic ductal acinar system and not from pancreatic islet themselves Schimmack S, et al: The diversity and commonalities of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, Langenbecks Arch Surg 396:273– 298, 2011.
  • 5. Epidemiology  Incidence rate of 0.4 cases per 100,000  Incidence is increasing  Males = Females  Age – 60 – 80 years  5% familial association – MEN1, VHL, TS, NF1  Tend to be diagnosed at a younger age Family history is the only identified risk factor Fraenkel M, et al: Epidemiology of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours, Best Pract Res Clin Gastroenterol 26:691–703, 2012.
  • 6. Potential Reasons for Increased Incidence and Prevalence in PNET • 0.17-0.43 cases / 100,000 • Exact reasons are unknown but may include: – Potential underdiagnoses and underreporting in the past – Improved diagnostic techniques – Increased awareness of NET in the community Fraenkel M, et al: Epidemiology of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours, Best Pract Res Clin Gastroenterol 26:691– 703, 2012.
  • 8.  Well circumscribed solitary masses  Majority are well differentiated  Potential to grow & metastasise > malignant  Likelihood of metastatic spread is very low , benign has been used as a classification variable  Malignant- invades locoregionally, has metastasised distantly or to regional lymph nodes, greater than 2 cms insize, displays vascular, lymphatic or neural invasion or has proliferative tndex of greater than 2 % Klöppel G, et al: The gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine cell system and its tumors: the WHO classification, Ann N Y Acad Sci 1014:13–27, 2004.
  • 10. Grading system for PNETs Good Poor
  • 11. Ki-67  Antigen KI-67 also known as Ki-67 or MKI67 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MKI67 gene  Ki derived from the city of discovery – Kiel, Germany.  Associated with cell replication and ribosomal RNA transcription.  Present during all active phases of cell cycle  Absent from resting cell – G0
  • 12. Staging – TNM (AJCC 2010)
  • 14. Classification Based on Functional Activity Functioning Non-functioning PNETs may or may not have secretory symptoms Secretory symptoms related to specific hormones Tumors (nonfunctional) may secrete peptides but cause no clinical symptoms
  • 15. Non-functional PNETs  Most PNETs ~75%  Often found incidentally  Symptoms relate to tumor’s mass effect – abd pain, vomiting, weight loss, jaundice, pancreatitis  Tend to be larger than other PNETs  Nodes involved at time of diagnosis
  • 17. Pancreatic NETs Types Relative frequency: Asymptomatic >Insulinoma > Gastrinoma > Glucagonoma > VIPomas > Somatostatinoma > Others
  • 18. Systematic Approach to Diagnosing NET Is Needed  History and physical exam  Biochemical markers (serum, tissue, urine)  Specific tests Imaging Computed tomography scan (CT)/ Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Nuclear Imaging Endoscopic ultrasound
  • 19. Insulinoma  1-2% of all pancreatic tumors  Small <2cms  Solitary  Rarely malignant  5 year OS- 56%, 10 year OS - 29% Baudin E, et al: Malignant insulinoma: recommendations for characterisation and treatment, Ann Endocrinol (Paris) 74:523–533, 2013. Okabayashi T, et al: Diagnosis and management of insulinoma, World J Gastroenterol 19:829–837, 2013.
  • 20. Diagnosis  Whipple’s Triad  plasma glucose- 40-50mg/dl  Fasting induced Neuroglycopenic symptoms of hypoglycaemia  Resolution of symptoms after meals  Plasma gluose, insulin,  Proinsulin and C-Peptide over 72 hour fast  This panel can detect 90% Ito T, et al: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors: clinical features, diagnosis and medical treatment: advances, Best Pract Res Clin Gastroenterol 26:737–753, 2012.
  • 21. Gastrinoma  1955, Zollinger and colleagues  Sporadic- 67%, familial- 33%  Mostly solitary  60% malignant- spread to regional lymph nodes by time of diagnosis  ^ gastrin -> recurrent peptic ulcers, diarrhoea, reflux esophagitis.  Diagnosis-  Thickened mucosal folds – hallmark  Demonstration of hypergastrinemia – fasting serum gastrin levels (10 times)  Abnormal gasric acid secretion- gastric pH <2  Secretin or glucagon stimulation test Zollinger RM, et al: Primary peptic ulcerations of the jejunum associated with islet cell tumors of the pancreas, Ann Surg 142:709–723, 1955. Anlauf M, et al: Sporadic versus hereditary gastrinomas of the duodenum and pancreas: distinct clinico-pathological and epidemiological features, World J Gastroenterol 12:5440–5446, 2006.
  • 22. Gastrinoma triangle  Apex- junction of cystic duct and CBD  INF- 2nd and 3rd part of duodenum  MEDIAL- jn of head and body of pancreas 90% of gastrinomas lie in this anatomic location Howard TJ, et al: Anatomic distribution of pancreatic endocrine tumors. Am J Surg 159:258-264, 1990
  • 23. Glucagonoma  ~400 cases  Large size >6cms  Solitary  Symptoms- glucose intolerance, migratory necrolytic erythema, weight loss  Diagnosis- elevated glucagon levels + enhancing pancreatic mass on CT  ~60% will have liver mets at diagnosis(Kulke et al)  Case series of 23 gluganomas – 5 yr survival was 75% (regardless of treatment) Kulke MH, et al: Neuroendocrine tumors, version 1.2015: clinical practice guidelines in oncology, J Natl Compr Canc Netw 13:78–108, 2015. Kindmark H, et al: Endocrine pancreatic tumors with glucagon hypersecretion: a retrospective study of 23 cases during 20 years, Med Oncol 24:330–337, 2007
  • 24. Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide secreting neuroendocrine tumor  Solittary, intrapancreatic tumor  >50% malignant  VIP – neurotransmitter & intestinal secretagogue  “pancreatic cholera” Verner-Morrison syndrome  Symptoms – high volume watery diarrhoea leading to  metabolic acidosis  Achlorhydria  Hypokalemia  Diagnosis – elevated plasma VIP, pancreatic tumor on imaging Renal failure secondary to hypovolemia Verner JV, et al: Islet cell tumor and a syndrome of refractory watery diarrhea and hypokalemia, Am J Med 25:374–380, 1958. Fabian E, et al: Diarrhea caused by circulating agents, Gastroenterol Clin North Am 41:603–610, 2012.
  • 25. Somatostatinoma  Less defined clinical syndrome than other PNETs  Symptoms – glucose intolerance, cholelithiasis, weight loss, diarrhoea, steatorrhoea, anemia  Located in the pancreas (56%) or duodenum  Duodenal Ssomas are associated with NF-1 in 50% of cases  Less likely to be malignant Nesi G, et al: Somatostatinoma: clinico-pathological features of three cases and literature reviewed, J Gastroenterol Hepatol 23:521–526, 2008. Williamson JM, et al: Pancreatic and peripancreatic somatostatinomas, Ann R Coll Surg Engl 93:356–360, 2011.
  • 26. Pancreatic Polypeptide- secreting neuroendocrine tumor  PNETs predominantly secreting PP- extremely rare  Functional/non-functional – debated  No specific syndrome  Intermittent abdominal pain, pancreatitis, may develop glucose intolerance  MEN-1 – multifocal and malignant  Fasting PP levels > 3 times -> presence of PNET and it will likely be large enough to be detected on ct Kuo SC, et al: Sporadic pancreatic polypeptide secreting tumors (PPomas) of the pancreas, World J Surg 32:1815–1822, 2008. Mutch MG, et al: Pancreatic polypeptide is a useful plasma marker for radiographically evident pancreatic islet cell tumors in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, Surgery 122:1012–1020, 1997
  • 27. Biochemical Assessment and Monitoring for PNETS 1. Chromogranin A(CgA)- correlate with tumor burden  CgA can be used as a marker in patients with both functional and non-functional pancreatic endocrine tumors  Decreses post treatment – favourable outcomes  Rising levels may suggest recurrent or progressive disease 2. Pancreatic polypeptide- where CgA is negative 3. Pancreastatin (PST)- post translational product of CgA. More powerful prognostic test in surgically managed PNET.  Pts with elevated PST pre and post-op- 90% chance of progression and 40% risk of death within 5 years. 4. Neurokinin A & Synaptophysin more diagnostic and less prognostic.
  • 29. CECT  valuable for primary/regional/metastatic  80-100% sensitive for tumors > 2cms  Capturing the vascular blush in the arterial phase is critical for identification and differentiation  More sensitive for liver mets Both PNET and their metastasis tend to be hypervascular and best seen in arterial phase. Arterial phase of a contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen showing an early enhancing pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor in the head and uncinate process of the pancreas (white arrow), with a necrotic node medially (red arrow). Van Hoe L, Gryspeerdt S, Marchal G, et al: Helical CT for the preoperative localization of islet cell tumors of the pancreas: Value of arterial and parenchymal phase images. AJR Am J Roentgenol 165:1437–1439, 1995.
  • 30. Arteriographic demonstration of an insulinoma. A, Selective injection into the specific dorsal pancreatic artery demonstrates the tumor precisely. B, Insulinoma with triphasic enhancement on CT. The mass in the pancreatic body (arrow) demonstrates early and prolonged enhancement (A from Edis AJ, McIlrath DC, Ven Heerden JA, et al: Insulinoma: Current diagnosis and surgical management.

Notas do Editor

  1. NETs arise from cells of the neuroendocrine system, which produce and secrete regulatory hormones. Most NETs are slow growing and malignant, with metastatic potential. The exception is insulinomas, which are usually benign. These cella show A- amine P- precursor (l-dopa, 5-hydroxyl tryptophan) U-uptake & D-decarboxylation To produce biogenic amines such as catecholamines ana serotonin. NETs can arise nearly anywhere in the body, although the most common sites of origin are the- Gastrointestinal (GI) tract, including the small intestine, rectum, large bowel, stomach, appendix, and liver Lungs Pancreas
  2. Pancreatic NETS (PNETs) are rare and usually slow-growing neoplasms, with symptoms resulting from excess hormone production or mechanical problems secondary to tumor bulk. 7% of all NETs are found in the pancreas Until the ….
  3. Cellular origin has been debated It is slikely that these tumors arise from pluripotent stem cells in the pancreatic ductal acinar system and not from pancreatic islet themselves
  4. The incidence rate of pNETs in the US is about 0.4 cases per 100,000 persons. Incidence is thought to be increasing over the past 3 decades. Von hippel-landau, tuberous sclerosis Cigarette, dm, chronic pancreatitis, obesity
  5. The incidence has been rising in the last three decades. This might be due to greater awareness, improved diagnostic capabilities, improved reporting to registries, or a change in nomenclature from carcinoid. With new successful treatments to control or slow the progression of the disease, the prevalence of cancer will increase.
  6. Mostly Well circumscribed solitary masses that can occur anywhere in the pancreas. All pnets have potential to grow and eventually metastasise, because of this these tumors are considered malignant. Because the Likelihood of metastatic spread is so very low in subsets of patients with pnets, benign has been used as a classification variable
  7. Grading is determined by ki-67 and mitotic index. Mitotic index is expressed as number of mitotic figures per 10 hpf and it is recommended that atleast 40-50 hpf must be examined.
  8. Antigen KI-67 is a nuclear protein that is associated with and may be necessary for cellular proliferation. Furthermore, it is associated with ribosomal RNA transcription. Inactivation of antigen KI-67 leads to inhibition of ribosomal RNA synthesis. During interphase, the Ki-67 antigen can be exclusively detected within the cell nucleus, whereas in mitosis most of the protein is relocated to the surface of the chromosomes. Ki-67 protein is present during all active phases of the cell cycle (G1, S, G2, and mitosis), but is absent from resting cells (G0).[8] Cellular content of Ki-67 protein markedly increases during cell progression through S phase of the cell cycle.[9]
  9. T3- without involving celiac axis or sma
  10. PNETs may or may not have secretory symptoms. Secretory symptoms are related to the specific hormone released. Tumors without secretory symptoms (nonfunctional) may still secrete peptides; however, they cause no specific clinical symptom. Presence of symptoms is due to the tumor bulk.
  11. Tumors without secretory symptoms are not associated with a hormonal syndrome. Because of this, they may be present as an incidental finding at surgery or be detected radiographically when investigating for nonspecific abdominal pain. Patients usually present late in the disease course with large primary malignancies or advanced disease. Symptoms are due to tumor growth or spread. Abdominal pain Jaundice Diarrhea Indigestion Weight loss
  12. There are several subtypes of pNETs. These are dependent on which islet cell type gets differentiated from the pleuripotent cells and consequently, which hormone is over-produced.
  13. A good history and physical examinations is important to the diagnosis of NET. Characteristic symptoms are present in 8% to 35% of metastatic NET and include dry flushing, cramps, nocturnal diarrhea, erythematous to purplish skin, telangiectasias, hepatomegaly, cardiac murmurs, edema, hypoglycemia, confusion, dyspepsia, and GI bleeding. Lab tests for biochemical markers should include: Serum CgA and other biomarkers as appropriate for symptoms (eg, if glucagonoma is suspected, glucagon levels should be tested) Tissue Once a biopsy is performed, the specimen should be stained for Ki-67, CgA, synaptophisin, and neuron specific enolase Urine 5-HIAA if patient has symptoms consistent with carcinoid syndrome Imaging Should include CT scan with contrast or MRI Nuclear imaging with Octreoscan and PET scan Endoscopic ultrasound is useful for diagnosing pNET
  14. Most common pnet Multiple in MEN1. Intra-pancreatic and cause hypoglycaemia.
  15. Critical part of diagnosis includes establishment of whipple triad Symptoms of hypoglycaemia - diaphoresis, shaking, mental confusion, obtundation, and seizures Whipple’s triad can be emulated by other entities, including surreptitious administration of insulin or sulfonylurea compounds 72 hour fast- two reasons; the first is to prevent life-threatening hypoglycemia and the second is to rule out the possibility of factitious hypoglycemia as a result of exogenous insulin administration
  16. First published case series dealing with clinical course of 2 patients The syndrome would be named after these authors and the tumors would eventually be known as gastrinomas In familial MEN1 – small multiple and mostly found in duodeum
  17. Migratory rash is often the first manifestation, tends to start in perineum and extends to trunk and extrimities
  18. Blood tests Patients with normalised PST post-operatively have low risk of death
  19. Usg has no role Once the diagnosis of functional pnet is made Cect as cross sectional imaging – first line imaging tool for localisation less sensitive than Endoscopic ultrasound in detection smaller lesions These lesions will washout in venous and delayed phases.
  20. Another note
  21. Eus should be performed if unable to localize on ct/mri
  22. Not yet been approved in us Peptide receptor radionucleotide therapy
  23. High frequency probe – 7.5 – 10 mhz
  24. Nonfunctional >2 cms should be resected Smaller non functional tumors resection is debatable
  25. Ncdb – national cancer database
  26. There are no guidelines on number of lymph nodes that should be sampled or requirement that formal lymphadenectomy be performed in pnet pts. Because most patients presenting with liver mets have large and multiple lesions – hepatic artery embolic therapy remains more rational approach
  27. High grade disease that are not candidates for surgical resection Studies have shown stable disease/progression free survival with somatostatin based analogues 60% PRRT –combines sstn analogues to radioactive elements – beta particles Suniti – vegf inhibitor
