The use of somatostatin analog in gastroenteropancreatic tumors other than carcinoid.
We have used the gastrinoma syndrome to examine the effects of SMS. Acutely, SMS decreased acid secretion and restored the BAO/MAO to normal in eight of eight patients. Basal and secretin-stimulated gastrin responses were suppressed but not normalized. Treatment for up to 2 years with SMS controlled symptoms, suppressed serum gastrin, and suppressed acid secretion. Treatment for 1 year or longe...
متن کاملThe management of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors with somatostatin analogues.
Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors are a heterogeneous group of malignancies, characterized by varying degrees of biological activity and metastatic potential. A common thread between this wide mix of neoplasms has remained their sensitivity to hormonal modulation with somatostatin analogues. New analogues of somatostatin have been recently introduced and are beginning to shape a diff...
متن کاملSomatostatin-receptor-based imaging and therapy of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
Somatostatin receptor imaging (SRI) with [(111)In-DTPA(0)]octreotide has proven its role in the diagnosis and staging of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEPNETs). Newer radiolabeled somatostatin analogs which can be used in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, and which have a higher affinity for the somatostatin receptor, especially receptor subtype-2, have been developed....
متن کاملUse of somatostatin analog for localization and treatment of ACTH secreting bronchial carcinoid tumor.
A 29-year-old woman presenting with an ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome and a nodule of the upper lobe of the left lung was explored by indium 111 (111In) octreotide scintigraphy. This showed a pathologic uptake by the nodule. Treatment with octreotide resulted in the rapid control of hypercortisolism prior to surgery.
متن کاملConsensus report on the use of somatostatin analogs for the management of neuroendocrine tumors of the gastroenteropancreatic system.
This consensus report gives a detailed description of the use of somatostatin analogs in the management of neuroendocrine tumors of the gastroenteropancreatic system. As background information we have outlined critical aspects of the pathology, the use of tumor markers, a definition of functional and non-functional digestive neuroendocrine tumors, different imaging modalities, surgical consider...
