摘要
We report the unexpected findings of F-18-fluorodihydroxyphenylalanine (F-18-FDOPA) PET/CT performed in a patient with a history of ileal carcinoid. A focally increased F-18-FDOPA uptake was detected in the left side of the epiglottis corresponding to a laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Interestingly, uptake of 3-O-methyl-6-F-18-fluoro-l-dihydroxyphenylalanine, a metabolite of F-18-FDOPA, has been previously reported in both squamous cell carcinoma cell lines and the corresponding mouse tumor xenograft models. Although F-18-FDOPA is mainly used in patients with neuroendocrine tumors, F-18-FDOPA is not a neuroendocrine tumor-specific radiotracer.
