This case report follows a 63-year-old female patient with a history of a gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) neuroendocrine tumor of the terminal ileum who developed ovarian metastasis and later progressed to peritoneal carcinomatosis. The patient was found to have worsening metastasis on CT that was subsequently confirmed with (Ga)-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging. This case outlines the rare metastatic nature of a primary ileal neuroendocrine tumor and emphasizes the efficacy of (Ga)-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging in the localization, progression, and treatment of neuroendocrine metastatic disease.
本病例报告的对象是一名63岁女性患者,她有回肠末端胃肠胰(GEP)神经内分泌肿瘤病史,发生了卵巢转移,随后进展为腹膜癌。患者CT检查发现转移灶恶化,随后经(镓)-DOTATATE PET/CT成像证实。本病例概述了原发性回肠神经内分泌肿瘤罕见的转移特性,并强调了(镓)-DOTATATE PET/CT成像在神经内分泌转移性疾病的定位、病情进展评估及治疗中的作用。
