Narrative:

While on final approach at 170 KIAS and 2500 ft MSL; we lowered gear and extended flaps from 15 to 20 units. Le flap light and le slat asym EICAS message illuminated. We declared an emergency and executed a missed approach. The tower issued us a heading and climb to 2000 ft. Upon switching to departure control; the controller gave us an urgent traffic call with climb and new heading. We saw some traffic and never received a TA or RA. After completing the QRH procedures we were vectored to an ILS. Emergency equipment was standing by otherwise landing and rollout were uneventful.
