Özet

We present the 68Ga-DOTATATE and 68Ga-FAPI (fibroblast activation protein inhibitor) PET/CT findings of a 61-year-old man diagnosed with atypical World Health Organization grade II multiple meningiomas. The patient has been stable for 2 years following multiple surgeries and external radiotherapy because of recurring disease until he recently described frequent headaches, and a follow-up examination confirmed new meningioma lesions on MRI. However, the patient was inoperable and was referred for 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT to determine eligibility for salvage peptide receptor radionuclide therapy. He also underwent fibroblast activation protein-Targeted imaging using 68Ga-FAPI04 PET/CT, which revealed heterogeneous, low to mild fibroblast activation protein expression across multiple meningioma lesions.
