Background: The majority of patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET) develop liver metastases during the course of the disease, significantly impacting prognosis and quality of life.

Objective: Radiologically guided interventional therapies, such as thermal ablation, transarterial embolization (TAE)/chemoembolization (TACE), and selective internal radiotherapy (TARE), can play a crucial role in the treatment of metastatic NET.

Methods: Due to the rarity of the disease, the majority of evidence is based on retrospective studies. For thermal ablation, the complete response rates ranging from 31.6 to 95.3% depending on the study. No significant differences in outcomes were found between TAE, TACE, and TARE. In several studies, all intra-arterial procedures led to a reduction of tumor-related symptoms and achieved disease control.

Conclusions: Thermal ablation can be used as a curative therapy in oligometastatic patients with nonresectable liver metastases from NETs. In cases of disseminated liver metastases, intra-arterial therapy using TAE, TACE, or TARE can be employed.
