Somatostatin receptor imaging using 68 Ga-DOTATATE PET is widely popular for evaluation of neuroendocrine tumors. 68 Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT shows highest physiologic uptake in spleen followed by other organs such as kidneys, adrenal glands, and liver. Hemangiomas, although rare, are the most common primary benign neoplasm of the spleen, composed of endothelial-lined vascular channels. We present a case of 77-year-old man who underwent 68 Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT scan for evaluation of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor and incidentally demonstrated intense radiotracer uptake in splenic hemangiomata.
使用 68Ga-DOTATATE PET 进行生长抑素受体显像，广泛用于神经内分泌肿瘤的评估。68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT 显示脾脏具有最高的生理性摄取，其次是肾脏、肾上腺和肝脏等其他器官。血管瘤虽然罕见，但却是脾脏最常见的原发性良性肿瘤，由内皮衬里的血管通道组成。我们报告了 1 例 77 岁男性，因胰腺神经内分泌肿瘤接受 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT 扫描，偶然发现脾脏血管瘤有强烈的放射性示踪剂摄取。
