Abstract

Abstract: The development of late metastatic recurrence after nephrectomy is a well-known characteristic of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Correct diagnosis is often challenging due to the long time between primary tumor excision and the development of metastases. 68 Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT has the potential to be employed in the follow-up of RCC, because RCC expresses somatostatin receptors. However, limited cases have been reported demonstrating 68 Ga-DOTATATE uptake in the metastases of RCC. Herein, we describe a unique case of RCC with multiple atypical metastatic sites, emphasizing the usefulness of 68 Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT in the evaluation and follow-up of patients with RCC.

68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT 在随访伴有多个非典型转移部位的肾细胞癌中的价值

摘要：肾切除术后出现晚期转移性复发是肾细胞癌（RCC）的一个众所周知的特征。由于从原发肿瘤切除到发生转移之间的时间较长，正确诊断往往具有挑战性。68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT 有可能用于 RCC 的随访，因为 RCC 表达体生长抑素受体。然而，显示 RCC 转移灶摄取 68Ga-DOTATATE 的病例报道有限。在此，我们描述了一例具有多个不典型转移部位的独特 RCC 病例，强调了 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT 在评估和随访 RCC 患者方面的实用性。
