Gynecomastia is abnormal enlargement of the male breasts due to the excess growth of glandular component. A 65-year-old man with medullary carcinoma of thyroid underwent (68)Ga-DOTANOC PET-CT for somatostatin receptor (SSTR) scintigraphy. Extensive nodal, bone, and bone marrow disease was seen. Interestingly, increased (68)Ga-DOTANOC uptake was also noted in bilateral enlarged mammary glands (gynecomastia). Although SSTR types 1 and 3 have been identified in the normal female breast, no report exists regarding SSTR expression in gynecomastia.
男性乳房发育症是由于腺体成分过度生长导致的男性乳房异常增大。一位 65 岁男性患有甲状腺髓样癌,接受了生长抑素受体(SSTR)闪烁显像的 (68)Ga-DOTANOC PET-CT 检查。广泛的淋巴结、骨骼和骨髓疾病。有趣的是,双侧增大的乳腺(男性乳房发育症)也可见到(68)Ga-DOTANOC 摄取增加。尽管在正常女性乳房中已经鉴定出 SSTR 类型 1 和 3,但关于男性乳房发育症中 SSTR 表达的报道尚不存在。
