摘要
作者介绍了一位 59 岁女士的病例,她被诊断为左腮腺淋巴上皮癌(LEC)。通过对比增强 CT 确定了原发肿瘤,并通过细针穿刺细胞学和免疫组化确诊。使用氟-18 氟脱氧葡萄糖 PET CT 进行分期发现了区域性结节转移,但未发现远处转移。根治性放疗后,核磁共振成像观察到了良好的局部反应,但患者的血浆 Epstein-Barr 病毒载量仍在持续上升。鉴于其原发肿瘤的 2 型体生长激素受体(SSTR2)阳性,对其进行了镓-68 DOTA-[Tyr3] octreotate PET CT(68Ga-DOTATATE PET CT)检查,结果显示多处远处转移灶具有 DOTATATE 阳性。尽管尝试了姑息化疗和免疫疗法,但由于疾病进展,患者决定接受最佳支持治疗。转移性LEC在68Ga-DOTATATE PET CT上的独特表现提示了SSTR2靶向成像在诊断和治疗中的潜在作用。
A case of metastatic lymphoepithelial carcinoma of parotid gland identified on 68gallium DOTA-[Tyr3] octreotate PET CT.
The authors present the case of a 59-year-old lady diagnosed with lymphoepithelial carcinoma (LEC) of the left parotid gland. The primary tumour was identified using contrast-enhanced CT, and diagnosis was confirmed via fine needle aspiration cytology and immunohistochemistry. Staging using fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose PET CT revealed regional nodal metastases, while no distant metastasis was evident. Following radical radiotherapy, a favourable locoregional response was observed on MRI, yet the patient's plasma Epstein-Barr virus load continued to rise. Given her primary tumour's somatostatin receptor type 2 (SSTR2) positivity, gallium-68 DOTA-[Tyr3] octreotate PET CT (68Ga-DOTATATE PET CT) was performed, revealing multiple distant metastases with DOTATATE avidity. Despite attempts at palliative chemotherapy and immunotherapy, disease progression led to the decision for the best supportive care. The unique presentation of metastatic LEC on 68Ga-DOTATATE PET CT suggests a potential role for SSTR2-targeted imaging in diagnosis and management.
