| A 65-year-old man presented with intermittent abdominal pain for three months. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed a mass in the body of the pancreas. Moreover, abdominal contrast-enhancing computed tomography revealed a homogenously enhancing mass in the body of the pancreas. Scan findings were in favor of the neuroendocrine tumor, and the serum chromogranin level was slightly raised (111.9 ng/ml, normal <98). He had no history of vomiting, jaundice, melena, hematemesis, constipation, diarrhea, weight gain, weight loss, loss of appetite, and fever. He also had no symptoms related to the excessive production of catecholamines, such as hypertension. The patient was referred for Ga-68 DOTANOC positron emission tomography-computed tomography (Ga-68 DOTANOC PET-CT) for further evaluation. The scan was done to rule out metastatic disease or other synchronous lesions to plan surgical excision. The Ga-68 DOTANOC PET-CT revealed a pancreatic lesion with no other abdominal lesions. We noted multiple tracer avid soft tissue lesions on both sides of the neck that were not diagnosed previously. This case report demonstrates a rare case with multiple paragangliomas diagnosed by the Ga-68 DOTANOC PET-CT. This finding could lead to changes in patient management | ||
