Popis: | Primary intraosseous meningiomas (PIMs) are rare tumors that present with a variable radiological appearance and a clinical behavior that is considerably different from that of intracranial meningiomas. Treatment of PIMs consists of complete resection, which may be difficult to achieve due to the lack of clear tumor margins on conventional imaging studies. PET/CT using 68Ga-DOTA–conjugated peptides has been used for the diagnosis and treatment planning of different types of meningiomas due to these tracers’ affinity to somatostatin receptors, which are found in most meningiomas. However, this imaging modality’s use as an intraoperative adjunct has not been reported for PIMs. In this technical note, the authors describe a [68Ga-DOTA0-Tyr3]octreotide (68Ga-DOTATOC)-PET/CT–guided resection of a PIM. In this case, the area of increased uptake in the 68Ga-DOTATOC-PET/CT study extended well beyond the tumor margins identified on MRI. The patient’s pathology report confirmed the presence of tumor cells within peripheral bone, which macroscopically appeared normal. The authors propose 68Ga-DOTATOC-PET/CT as a valuable adjunct in the surgical management of PIMs and offer a reasonable justification for its use based on current evidence. Its use for intraoperative image guidance may aid neurosurgeons in achieving a complete resection, thus minimizing the risk of recurrence of this complex pathological entity. |
