68Ga-DOTA-Exendin-4 PET/CT Demonstrated a Higher Detection Efficacy for Double-Primary Insulinomas Than MRI: A Case...

We presented a 20-year-old woman with gradually increasing lethargy and multiple episodes of dizziness for 5 months. The laboratory examination revealed decreasing level of blood glucose and elevated levels of fasting plasma insulin and C-peptide. The MRI identified a focal nodule in the tail of the pancreas. 68Ga-DOTA-exendin-4 PET/CT revealed 2 intense focal tracer uptakes in the tail of the pancreas, one of which corresponded to the lesion revealed on MRI. The immunohistochemical results of resected samples confirmed the diagnosis of double-primary insulinomas. 68Ga-DOTA-exendin-4 PET/CT demonstrated excellent localization and characterization for double-primary insulinomas in the tail of the pancreas.
