Somatostatin-receptor scintigraphy in an uncommon neuroendocrine tumor

#3285

Introduction: Primary mesenteric neuroendocrine tumors (MNETs) have been rarely reported in the literature and especially their exploration with the somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS) imaging which is a valuable tool for diagnostic, staging and follow-up.

Aim(s): SRS for exploration and staging of a metastatic MNET.

Materials and methods: We report a case of a 67-years old woman who presented a metastatic MNET in the left supraclavicular adenopathy of which the anatomopathological study was in favour of a well-differentiated NET grade 1 (Ki67 1%). The cross-sectional tomography (CT) scan revealed a mesenteric tissue lesion with locoregional lymphadenopathy, a unique liver metastasis in segment VIII and multinodular thyroid.
