متن کاملEvaluation of tumor-induced osteomalacia with 111In-pentetreotide scintigraphy.
In cases of nonhereditary osteomalacia associated with hypophosphatemia and inadequate response to vitamin D supplementation, one should consider the possibility of tumor-induced osteomalacia, a paraneoplastic syndrome caused by small mesenchymal tumors often found in obscure locations. We present a case of tumor-induced osteomalacia in which (111)In-pentetreotide scintigraphy aided in accurate...
متن کاملExpectations of response from octreotide therapy in recurrent phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors--do they reflect reality?
Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor (PMT) is a rare and small tumor leading to oncogenic osteomalacia and deriving mostly from benign mesenchymal origin. The tumor may originate in any part of the body such as soft tissue or bone site, but is more frequent in the upper and lower extremities and craniofacial sinuses. Its most common type is oncogenic osteomalacia (OO) associated phosphaturic mesenchy...
