Feng Y, Liu L. Endoscopic therapy versus surgical resection for elderly patients with colorectal neuroendocrine tumors. Surg Endosc 2024:10.1007/s00464-024-11220-z. [PMID: 39214875 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-024-11220-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic therapy (ET) and surgical resection (SR) are common surgical methods for the treatment of colorectal neuroendocrine tumors (CRNETs). However, for elderly patients, it remains unclear which surgical method yields better long-term outcomes. METHODS Elderly patients ≥ 65 years with CRNETs diagnosed from 2000 to 2020 were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to minimize selection bias. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards models were utilized to evaluate the effects of diverse demographic and clinical factors on overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). RESULTS A total of 2214 patients were included in the study, with 1417 patients in the ET group and 797 patients in the SR group. After PSM, the ET group outperformed the SR group in terms of OS (hazard ratio [HR] 0.56, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.44-0.70) and CSS (HR 0.21, 95% CI 0.11-0.40). Similarly, the ET group maintained its advantage in mean 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS and CSS rates compared to the SR group (P < 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified age, sex, grade, marital status, and treatment modality as independent risk factors affecting OS, while age, sex, marital status, and treatment modality were identified as independent risk factors affecting CSS. CONCLUSIONS ET offered superior long-term outcomes for elderly patients ≥ 65 years with CRNETs.

Endoscopic submucosal dissection for rectal neuroendocrine tumours: A multicentric retrospective study. Dig Liver Dis 2024:S1590-8658(24)00735-7.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD) has been reported as a feasible and effective treatment for Rectal Neuroendocrine Tumours (R-NETs). However, most of the experience on the topic comes from retrospective tertiary centre from Eastern Asia. Data on ESD for R-NETs in Western centres are lacking. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective study, including patients who underwent endoscopic resection of R-NETS by ESD between 2015 and 2020 in Western Centres. Important clinical variables such as demographic, size of R-NETs, histological type, presence of lymphovascular invasion or distant metastasis, completeness of the endoscopic resection, recurrence, and procedure related complications were recorded. RESULTS 40 ESD procedure on R-NETs from 39 patients from 8 centres were included. Mean R-NETs size was 10.3 mm (SD 4.01). Endoscopic en-bloc resection was achieved in 39/40 ESD (97.5 %), R0 margin resection was obtained in 87.5 % (35/40) of the procedures, one patient was referred to surgery for lymphovascular invasion, two procedures (5 %) reported significant episodes of bleeding, whereas a perforation occurred in one case (1/40, 2.5 %) managed endoscopically. Recurrence occurred in 1 patient (2.5 %). CONCLUSION ESD is an effective and safe treatment for R-NETs in western centres.

Wang FG, Jiang Y, Liu C, Qi H. Comparison between Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection and Transanal Endoscopic Microsurgery in Early Rectal Neuroendocrine Tumor Patients: A Meta-Analysis. J INVEST SURG 2023; 36:2278191. [PMID: 37970828 DOI: 10.1080/08941939.2023.2278191] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the effectiveness, safety and cost-effectiveness of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) in early rectal neuroendocrine tumor (RNET) patients. This article will provide reliable evidence for surgeons in regards to clinical decision-making. METHODS Systematic literature retrieval was performed in Pubmed, Embase and Cochrane database from 2013/4/30 to 2023/4/30. Methodology validation was performed by using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). Data-analysis was conducted by using the Review manager version 5.3 software. RESULTS A total of three retrospective studies were included in our meta-analysis. All eligible studies were considered to be high quality. By comparing baseline characteristics between TEM and ESD, patients in the TEM group seemed to be characterized by a larger tumor size and lower tumor level, even though no statistical significance was found. Clear statistical significance favoring TEM was identified in terms of R0 resection rate, procedure time and hospital stay. No statistical significance was found in terms of recurrence rate, adverse events rate and additional treatment rate. CONCLUSIONS Compared with ESD, TEM was a more effective treatment modality for early RNET patients; it was associated with a relatively higher R0 resection rate and a similar degree of safety. However, the relatively higher cost and complicated manipulation restricted the promotion of TEM. Surgeons should opt for TEM as a primary treatment in patients with a larger tumor size and deeper degree of tumorous infiltration if the financial condition and hospital facility permit.

Abstract
This ENETS guidance paper, developed by a multidisciplinary working group, provides an update on the previous colorectal guidance paper in a different format. Guided by key clinical questions practical advice on the diagnosis and management of neuroendocrine tumours (NET) of the caecum, colon, and rectum is provided. Although covered in one guidance paper colorectal NET comprises a heterogeneous group of neoplasms. The most common rectal NET are often small G1 tumours that can be treated by adequate endoscopic resection techniques. Evidence from prospective clinical trials on the treatment of metastatic colorectal NET is limited and discussion of patients in experienced multidisciplinary tumour boards strongly recommended. Neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC) and mixed neuroendocrine non-neuroendocrine neoplasms (MiNEN) are discussed in a separate guidance paper.
