Background: Extra-appendiceal colorectal neuroendocrine tumors are rare neoplasms with a variable biological behavior. Materials and Methods: The study group consisted of 15 patients with an extra-appendiceal colorectal neuroendocrine tumor who underwent surgical resection (M/F=3:12, mean age=62.9 years). Lower-grade neuroendocrine tumors and neuroendocrine carcinomas were recognized in 5 and 10 patients, respectively. Data were evaluated retrospectively with regard to clinical and pathologic characteristics and outcomes. Results: The median age of the patients with lower-grade NETs was significantly lower than that in patients with NECs (53 yr vs. 68 yr, p=0.03). NETs G1-G2 were significantly smaller than neuroendocrine carcinomas (4.0 cm vs. 6.4 cm, p=0.02). There were no differences between lower-grade NETs and NECs with regard to tumor location, rate of nodal involvement and distant metastases. All the patients underwent open segmental resection of the colon or rectum. Complete resection was achieved in 3 of 5 patients from the lower-grade NET group, and in 5 of 10 patients in the NEC group. Overall survival was significantly better for lower-grade NETs tumors (p=0.005). The median survival was 4.8 months in the NEC group. The median survival in the lower-grade NET group was not achieved after a median follow-up of 69 months. Three-year overall survival was 100% for lower-grade NETs, and only 27% for NECs. Conclusion: Lower-grade neuroendocrine tumors seem to exhibit comparable potential for dissemination as neuroendocrine carcinomas, but prognostic implications of metastases are distinct.

617 Background: To investigate survival in patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) and identify risk factors associated with survival. Methods: Clinical, pathologic, treatment and complete follow-up data were retrospectively collected from 1613 consecutive patients with CRLM in Zhongshan Hospital between 2000 and 2010. The prognostic value of different factors was studied through univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: The median survival was 22.0 mo and 5-yr survival rate was 16%. Survival of synchronous liver metastases (SLM) (21.2 mo and 16%) was lower than that of metachronous liver metastases (MLM) (30.1 mo and 23%, p<0.01). Survival after resection of liver metastases was 49.8 mo and 37%, higher than that after chemotherapy (22.2 mo and 0%), that after intervention(19.0 mo and 11%), that after chemotherapy combined with intervention(22.8 mo and 10%)and that after local regional treatment (28.5 mo and 0%). Expansion of the indications for liver resection (38.0 vs 48.0 mo, 32% vs 40%), simultaneous or staged resection of primary colorectal tumor and liver metastases (47.0 vs 44.0 mo, 33% vs 35%) and preoperative neoadjuvant therapy (44.0 vs 48.0 mo, 38% vs 36%) had no significant effect on survival. 64 initially irresectable patients could undergo surgery after convertible therapy, with the median survival 36.9 mo and 5-yr survival 30%, better than that of unresectable patients (18.2 mo and 8%). Five factors were found to be significant and independent predictors of poor survival by multivariate analysis: SLM, poorly differentiated primary, number of liver metastases >= 4, largest liver metastases >= 5 cm, and no surgical treatment of liver metastases. Giving one point to each above factor, the population was divided into six groups with 5-yr survival rates: 0 (64%), 1 (44%), 2 (29%), 3 (4%), 4 (4%) and 5 (1%) (p<0.01). Conclusions: Survival of SLM was lower than that of MLM. Resection of liver metastases provides good long-term survival benifit for patients with resectable and initially irresectable liver metastases. Expansion of the indications for liver resection is acceptable. Long-term survival outcome can be predicted from a risk factor scoring system.
