We describe the Ga-68 DOTATATE positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) findings of a 51-year-old man, operated for right esthesioneuroblastoma. Postoperative Ga-68 DOTATATE PET/CT revealed focal uptake anterior to sphenoid ostium on the right paramedian side, suspicious for residual disease. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an enhancing lesion in posterosuperior nasal cavity on the right side extending into the right sphenoid sinus. He underwent re-surgery and adjuvant chemoradiotherapy. The histopathology revealed residual olfactory neuroblastoma. The follow-up Ga-68 DOTATATE PET/CT was negative. This case emphasizes the role of Ga-68 DOTATATE PET/CT in the management, especially in residual or recurrent disease and potential radiotheranostics for these rare tumors.
我们描述了一名51岁因右侧嗅神经母细胞瘤接受手术的男性患者的镓-68 DOTATATE正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描(PET/CT)检查结果。术后镓-68 DOTATATE PET/CT显示右侧旁正中蝶窦口前方有局灶性摄取,怀疑有残留病灶。磁共振成像显示右侧鼻腔后上壁有强化病变,延伸至右侧蝶窦。他接受了再次手术和辅助放化疗。组织病理学显示为残留的嗅神经母细胞瘤。随访的镓-68 DOTATATE PET/CT结果为阴性。该病例强调了镓-68 DOTATATE PET/CT在治疗管理中的作用,尤其是在残留或复发性疾病方面,以及对这些罕见肿瘤潜在的放射核素治疗作用。
