Intraoperative detection of a bronchial carcinoid with a radiolabeled somatostatin analog.
Carcinoid tumors of the lung are rare neuroendocrine tumors that make up approximately 1 to 2% of all lung neoplasms. These tumors overexpress somatostatin receptors, and somatostatin analog therapy has become standard in the treatment of carcinoid tumors. In addition, radiolabeled somatostatin analogs have been used to diagnose and treat these lesions. We describe the case of a patient with a ...
متن کاملMetastatic Insulinoma Managed with Radiolabeled Somatostatin Analog
Insulinoma is a rare pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. Overproduction of insulin and associated hypoglycemia are hallmark features of this disease. Diagnosis can be made through demonstration of hypoglycemia and elevated plasma levels of insulin or C-Peptide. Metastatic disease can be detected through computerized tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tom...

inactivating CaSR mutation who had episodes of psychosis and osteoporosis. After treatment with cinacalcet for 12 months, serum calcium levels gradually normalized. FestenSpanjer et al.7 reported a 37-year-old female patient with FHH and a 10-year history of recurrent pancreatitis who was treated with cinacalcet 30 mg/day for four weeks. Alon and Van DeVoorde4 reported a 6-year-old boy with FHH...
متن کاملDiffuse enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cell hyperplasia and multiple gastric carcinoids: a complication of pernicious anaemia.
A man with long-standing pernicious anaemia developed multiple gastric carcinoid tumours with a background of diffuse enterochromaffin-like cell hyperplasia. There is evidence that enterochromaffin-like cells synthesis and store histamine and that their proliferation is stimulated by high serum gastrin levels. Gastric carcinoid tumours can be difficult to differentiate from the more common aden...
متن کاملPernicious Anaemia with Gastric Carcinoids.
We report the case of a 42 year male with history of chronic anaemia who was found to have pernicious anaemia with beta thalassemia trait and had on esophago-gastric-duodenoscopy, gastric carcinoids with gastric atrophy. Pernicious anaemia and gastric carcinoids occurring simultaneously in a single individual is rare. Our case emphasises the need for esophago-gastric-duodenoscopy in cases of pe...
