Intramastoid Phosphaturic Mesenchymal Tumor Causing Hypophosphatemic Osteomalacia Detected on 68 Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT But Not on 99m Tc-Sestamibi and 18 F-FDG Scans

Ga-DOTATATE uptake in mesenchymal tumors causing hypophosphatemic osteomalacia has been recently described. Herein, we present a case of Ga-DOTATATE uptake in an intramastoid phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor that had not been depicted in previous Tc-Sestamibi and F-FDG scans. The lesion was surgically...

Description
Summary:Ga-DOTATATE uptake in mesenchymal tumors causing hypophosphatemic osteomalacia has been recently described. Herein, we present a case of Ga-DOTATATE uptake in an intramastoid phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor that had not been depicted in previous Tc-Sestamibi and F-FDG scans. The lesion was surgically removed and the phosphorus level increased to the normal range.
