Accumulation of natural killer cells after hepatic artery embolisation in the midgut carcinoid syndrome.

B Wängberg1, H Ahlman, U Tylén, O Nilsson, S Hermodsson, K Hellstrand.   

Abstract

Eleven patients with disseminated midgut carcinoid tumour disease were subjected to hepatic artery embolisation. In six patients, lymphocytosis with a predominance of NK cells occurred and the cytotoxic activity of isolated lymphocytes increased. A relation between NK cell accumulation and subsequent radiological and biochemical response was observed, and it is suggested that anti-tumour mechanisms other than ischaemia may contribute to the therapeutic response in these patients.
