Looking for opinions, following my dear colleagues examples: Young woman, carrier of a MEN1 germline mutation, with multiple pancreatic NETs (insulinoma). History of partial pancreatectomy (details unclear). Now symptomatic, with tumors in the head, uncinate process, neck, body, and tail. No distant mets. She is strongly against a total pancreatectomy. What would you recommend? @AGangiMD @RachelRiechelm2 @OncoThor @HalletJulie @JaydiDelRivero @Ja_Capdevila @SyedAAhmad5 @DrSukrithan
46%total pancreatectomy
30%somatostatin analogs
16%everolimus
8%other surgery, explain

Mixed emotions. Back in Chicago for the clinical retirement of our mentor and legend Mark Ferguson. Couldn’t ask for a better voice in my head! #wwfd. Countless surgeons are and will be better practitioners because of your unwavering ethic and guidance.
