Chinese expert consensus on multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine liver metastases

Many management strategies are available for pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms with liver metastases.However,a lack of biological,molecular,and genomic information and an absence of data from rigorous trials limit the validity of these strategies.This review presents the viewpoints from an international conference consisting of several expert working groups.The working groups reviewed a series of questions of particular interest to clinicians taking care of patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms with liver metastases by reviewing the existing management strategies and literature,evaluating the evidence on which management decisions were based,developing internationally acceptable recommendations for clinical practice,and making recommendations for clinical and research endeavors.The review for each question will be followed by recommendations from the panel.
