Popis: A 38-year-old woman presented with a 4-month history of left-sided otalgia and otorrhea. Otoscopy revealed a mass in the left external auditory canal causing obliteration. A biopsy was taken, and the diagnosis was consistent with a well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor. The patient was referred to our department for staging with 68 Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT. Increased radiopharmaceutical uptake was observed in the primary tumor and metastatic lymph nodes.
