68Ga-NODAGA–Exendin-4 PET/CT Findings in a Case of Metastatic Insulinoma With Refractory Hypoglycemia Controlled by 90Y Transarterial Radioembolization

Abstract

Abstract Metastatic insulinomas can cause recurrent hypoglycemia requiring continuous IV glucose infusion. Various medical and chemotherapeutic treatment options are used to reduce the patient’s risk of death due to hypoglycemia. Treatment-resistant hepatic metastatic insulinomas may benefit clinically from 90Y transarterial radioembolization therapy. In this case, we present a case of liver metastatic insulinoma that achieved clinical improvement after 2 cycles of 90Y microspheres transarterial radioembolization, and the presence of active metastases was demonstrated with 68Ga-NODAGA–exendin-4 PET/CT imaging.
