68 Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT is a well-known modality in diagnosis, staging, and in predicting therapy response of neuroendocrine tumors. We present a case of 63-year-old woman with diagnosis of pancreas neuroendocrine tumor showing 68 Ga-DOTATATE uptake in a lymph node in left axilla. It was diagnosed as capillary hemangioma after biopsy. 68 Ga-DOTATATE uptake in bone hemangiomas is well-known; however, its uptake in a nodal hemangioma is worth to know as it might change the clinical perspective.
68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT 是一种广泛应用于神经内分泌肿瘤诊断、分期和预测治疗反应的方法。我们报告了一例 63 岁女性,患有胰腺神经内分泌肿瘤,在左侧腋窝的淋巴结中显示出 68Ga-DOTATATE 的摄取。经活检后诊断为毛细血管血管瘤。骨血管瘤摄取 68Ga-DOTATATE 是众所周知的;然而,其在淋巴结血管瘤中的摄取值得了解,因为这可能会改变临床观点。
