Abstract

Background

Approximately 8–17 % of patients with von Hippel–Lindau (VHL) syndrome develop pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs), with 11–20 % developing metastases. Tumor grade is predictive of prognosis.

Objective

The aim of this study was to determine if preoperative metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) were associated with metastatic disease and tumor grade.

Methods

Sixty-two patients with VHL-associated PNETs prospectively underwent 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). MTV, TLG, and maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) were measured using a semi-automatic method. Surgically resected PNETs were classified according to 2010 World Health Organization tumor grade classification. MTV, TLG, and SUVmax were analyzed by metastatic disease and tumor grade using the Mann–Whitney test.

Results

A total of 88 PNETs were identified by CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT, 10 of which were non-FDG-avid. Histologic grading was available for 20 surgical patients. Patients with metastatic PNETs had a higher TLG (median 25.9 vs. 7.7 mean SUV [SUVmean]*mL; p = 0.0092) compared with patients without metastasis, while patients with grade 2 PNETs had a higher MTV (median 6.9 vs. 2.6 mL; p = 0.034) and TLG (median 41.2 vs. 13.1 SUVmean*mL; p = 0.0035) compared with patients with grade 1 PNETs. No difference in tumor size or SUVmax was observed between the groups.

Conclusions

Patients with metastatic PNETs have a higher TLG compared with patients without metastasis. Grade 2 PNETs have a higher MTV and TLG compared with grade 1 PNETs. Tumor size and SUVmax were not associated with grade. Volumetric parameters on 18F-FDG PET/CT may be useful in detecting higher grade PNETs with a higher malignant potential that may need surgical intervention.

Echinokokkose medikamentös behandeln oder operieren?

06.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Die Therapie von Echinokokkosen sollte immer in spezialisierten Zentren erfolgen. Eine symptomlose Echinokokkose kann – egal ob von Hunde- oder Fuchsbandwurm ausgelöst – konservativ erfolgen. Wenn eine Op. nötig ist, kann es sinnvoll sein, vorher Zysten zu leeren und zu desinfizieren. 

Wie sieht der OP der Zukunft aus?

04.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Der OP in der Zukunft wird mit weniger Personal auskommen – nicht, weil die Technik das medizinische Fachpersonal verdrängt, sondern weil der Personalmangel es nötig macht.

Umsetzung der POMGAT-Leitlinie läuft

03.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Seit November 2023 gibt es evidenzbasierte Empfehlungen zum perioperativen Management bei gastrointestinalen Tumoren (POMGAT) auf S3-Niveau. Vieles wird schon entsprechend der Empfehlungen durchgeführt. Wo es im Alltag noch hapert, zeigt eine Umfrage in einem Klinikverbund.

Recycling im OP – möglich, aber teuer

02.05.2024 DCK 2024 Kongressbericht

Auch wenn sich Krankenhäuser nachhaltig und grün geben – sie tragen aktuell erheblich zu den CO2-Emissionen bei und produzieren jede Menge Müll. Ein Pilotprojekt aus Bonn zeigt, dass viele Op.-Abfälle wiederverwertet werden können.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.
