Detection of Adult Pancreatoblastoma by 18F-FDG and 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/MR

A 36-year-old asymptomatic woman was incidentally found to have a huge mass in the pancreas by ultrasound during routine health screening. The mass was suspected of neuroendocrine tumor or solid pseudopapillary tumor by subsequent abdominal CT. 18F-FDG and 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/MR were acquired for presurgical assessment of the tumor invasion and malignant potential, which revealed intense FDG uptake and mild DOTATATE uptake. The tumor was completely resected, and postsurgical pathology demonstrated pancreatoblastoma with neuroendocrine manifestations. This case showed the metabolic and biological features of pancreatoblastoma on the 18F-FDG and 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/MR.
