After one cycle of PRRT, there was good symptomatic improvement, with a modest reduction in uptake on both 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT suggesting a favorable response. Hence, treatment with a second cycle was considered. Being somatostatin receptor–avid, this rare group of tumors when inoperable or recurrent may potentially be targeted with PRRT. Well-tolerated and noninvasive, PRRT could evolve as a promising targeted treatment approach in this clinical setting. In summary, tumor-induced osteomalacia with 68Ga-DOTATATE–avid inoperable or recurrent tumor can be considered a potential clinical application for PRRT beyond neuroendocrine tumors. ER -
