Abstract
Glucagonoma is a rare pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (panNET) that can be characterized by increased secretion of glucagon and distinguishing symptoms - glucagonoma syndrome with a typical dermatosis, necrolytic migratory erythema, being its most common manifestation. While surgery and somatostatin analogs remain first-line therapeutic options in panNETs, radioligand therapy with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE is a recommended second-line palliative treatment in advanced, metastatic cases. However, its prospects and efficacy are still not vastly researched in less frequent neuroendocrine neoplasms. Here, we present an extraordinary case of a metastatic glucagonoma treated with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE used as a second-line treatment in progressive disease.
