668 Background: Optimal management of rectal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) is not well defined. We characterized the clinicopathologic features, loco-regional, and systemic management of a population-based cohort of rectal NETs. Methods: Patients diagnosed with rectal NETs from 1999-2011 were identified from British Columbia provincial databases. NETs were classified as G1 and G2 tumors with a Ki-67 ≤ 20% and/or mitotic count ≤ 20 per high power field. Results: Of 91 rectal NETs, median age was 58 (IQR 48-65) years and 35 (38%) were male. Median tumor size was 6 (IQR 4-8) mm. Median overall survival was 164.7 months, with 3 patients presenting with stage IV disease. Treatment included local excision (n = 79), surgical resection (n = 6), and pelvic radiation (n = 1; T3N1 tumor). Final margin status was positive in 17 (20%) cases. Local relapse occurred in 8 (9%) cases, and one relapse to bone 13 months after T3N1 tumor resection. Univariate analysis demonstrated an association between local relapse and T classification, Ki-67, mitotic count, grade, and perineural invasion (p< 0.01), but not N or M classification, or lymphovascular invasion. Local relapse was not associated with surgical management or margin status. Of 3 patients with metastatic disease, two received systemic management, with capecitabine and temozolomide. Conclusions: Rectal NETs generally presented with small, early tumors and were treated with local excision or surgical resection without pelvic radiation. [Table: see text]

National Institutes of Health (NIH) guidelines recommend the use of pelvic radiation in T3N0 rectal cancer. We sought to determine the rate of compliance with NIH radiation guidelines for patients with T3N0 rectal cancer. We performed a retrospective cohort study of T3N0 rectal cancer diagnosed between January 1, 1994, and December 31, 2003, in Region 5 of the California Cancer Registry (R5 CCR). Three hundred twenty-nine patients with T3N0 rectal cancer were identified. The mean age of the study population was 68 years (range, 28 to 93 years). Only 54.1 per cent of patients with T3N0 cancer received pelvic radiation. There was no difference in gender ( P = 0.13) or the number of nodes examined ( P = 0.19) between patients who had treatment with pelvic radiation and those who did not. However, patients receiving radiation were significantly younger (mean 64 years with radiation therapy [XRT] vs 72 years without XRT, P < 0.001) and significantly more likely to be treated with systemic chemotherapy (75% with XRT vs 8.6% without XRT, P < 0.001). Significant numbers of patients with T3N0 rectal cancer are not receiving pelvic radiation in R5 CRR. NIH guidelines are not being translated into clinical practice. The reasons for this warrant continued investigation.
