THE PARATHYROID GLANDS AND PARATHYROID HORMONE: INSIGHTS FROM PTH GENE MUTATIONS
Joon-Hyop Lee, Sihoon Lee Laboratory of Genomics and Translational Medicine, Gachon University College of Medicine, Incheon, KoreaNine mutations have been discovered in the parathyroid hormone (PTH) gene since it was initially sequenced in 1983. An autosomal dominant C18R mutation in the signal peptide was first reported in 1990, followed by an exon skipping mutation, leading to loss of exon 2 in 1992; the latter mutation prevents PTH biosynthesis, as exon 2 contains the initiation codon. The S23P and S23X mutations affecting the same residue were reported in 1999 and 2012, respectively, while in 2008, the somatic mutation, R83X, was detected in a parathyroid adenoma tissue sample from a patient with overt hyperparathyroidism. In 2013, the heterozygous p.Met1_Asp6del mutation was discovered incidentally in a case-control study, while another heterozygous mutation, M14K, was detected in the signal peptide 4 years later. In 2015, a homozygous R56C mutation was reported, and was the first hypoparathyroidism-causing mutation identified that affects the mature bioactive portion of PTH; this mutation has significantly contributed to the understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in signal transduction through the PTH receptor. Recently, a novel homozygous S32P mutation was identified, which is also situated in the bioactive portion of PTH. The discovery of these nine mutations in the PTH gene and determination of the molecular mechanisms underlying their effects has provided deep insights into the synthesis, processing, and secretion of PTH. Future attempts to discover other such mutations will help elucidate as yet unknown functions of PTH, with potential clinical implications.

Genomic medicine is an approach for disease diagnosis, treatment and prevention that takes into account individuals’ genomic compositions. Under this approach, diagnostic testing is often employed for diagnosis and/or for selecting appropriate therapies based on the patient’s genetic content. Given that the genetic models of diseases (for example, single gene disease vs. complex disease) can vary from diseases to diseases, the most appropriate method for genetic testing therefore will also keep evolving. In addition to traditional platforms (such as Sanger sequencing, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLA), array CGH, etc.), next-generation sequencing (NGS) has been revolutionizing the field of genetic testing during the latest years.
In this presentation, the principles of genomic medicine and the state-of-the-art methodologies of clinical genetic testing will be illustrated. Several important endocrine diseases will be covered, including multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) type 1, MEN type 2, pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) type 1a and type 1b, pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL), primary aldosteronism, thyroid cancer, mitochondrial disease, antithyroid drug-induced agranulocytosis, congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), diabetes mellitus, Graves’ disease, etc.
However, genetic diagnosis is far from perfect and NGS is no panacea. Several critical challenges need to be addressed. In this talk, the speaker will present his views and experience in clinical genetic testing, especially focusing on the challenges and possible solutions.

High blood glucose is one of the risk factors for metabolic disease and INS (insulin) is the key regulatory hormone for glucose homeostasis. Hypoinsulinemia accompanied with hyperglycemia was diagnosed in mice with pancreatic β-cells exhibiting autophagy deficiency; however, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. The role of secretory autophagy in the regulation of metabolic syndrome is gaining more attention. Our data demonstrated that increased macroautophagic/autophagic activity leads to induction of insulin secretion in β-cells both in vivo and in vitro under high-glucose conditions. Moreover, proteomic analysis of purified autophagosomes from β -cells identified a group of vesicular transport proteins participating in insulin secretion, implying that secretory autophagy regulates insulin exocytosis. RAB37, a small GTPase, regulates vesicle biogenesis, trafficking, and cargo release. We demonstrated that the active form of RAB37 increased MAP1LC3/LC3 lipidation (LC3-II) and is essential for the promotion of insulin secretion by autophagy, but these phenomena were not observed in rab37 knockout (rab37-/-) cells and mice. Unbalanced insulin and glucose concentration in the blood was improved by manipulating autophagic activity using a novel autophagy inducer niclosamide (an antihelminthic drug) in a high-fat diet (HFD)-obesity mouse model. In summary, we reveal that secretory autophagy promotes RAB37-mediated insulin secretion to maintain the homeostasis of insulin and glucose both in vitro and in vivo.

Membranous nephropathy (MN), a type of glomerular nephritis, is one of the most common causes of nephrotic syndrome in adults. Initially, our results suggest that melatonin treatment ameliorates experimental MN via multiple pathways, including by its anti-oxidative, anti-apoptotic, and immunomodulatory effects. Although it is known that melatonin plays a protective role in MN, the role of melatonin receptors in the pathophysiology of MN is unclear. Following, we found that melatonin receptor 1A (MTNR1A) expression was significantly downregulated in renal tubular epithelial cells. Molecular studies showed that in MN kidney tissue, decreased PITX1 expression at the MTNR1A promoter regions leads to decreased levels of MTNR1A in renal tubular epithelial cells, which increases the future risk of MN. However, knowledge of the mechanism underlying MTNR1A expression has been limited and identified cytoplasmic hnRNPL as a novel player in the upregulation of MTNR1A expression in renal tubular epithelial cells, and as a potential therapeutic target. We further provide the molecular basis of c-Fos in transcriptionally downregulating expression of AANAT and melatonin, and elucidate the protective role of AANAT in preventing renal tubular cells death in albumin-injury cell model and MN progression. Melatonin, circadian and MN are linked together. We know smoking and sleeping disorder have been associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We showed that sleeping pill use was related to an increased risk of CKD and ESRD. There are interactions of smoking and sleep on the renal function. The effects of sleep duration on eGFR levels varied with smoking status. Normal sleep duration was a protective factor and more crucial for non-smokers than for smokers. Sleep disorder is bi-directionally associated with chronic kidney diseases (CKD). We also analyze the interaction between sleep duration on weekdays/weekends, catch-up sleep on weekends, and kidney functions to elucidate the missing link.

Machine learning stands as the cornerstone technology within the field of artificial intelligence. It leverages algorithms to autonomously identify patterns and regularities within extensive datasets, propelling advancements across a spectrum of application domains.
In the realm of image recognition and generation, deep learning has registered momentous strides. Models like Stable Diffusion have the capacity to craft multimedia content based on natural language descriptions. However, technological advancements within natural language processing (NLP) have been constrained by hardware and neural network architecture, yielding steady yet not revolutionary progress. The advent of the Transformer architecture in 2017, embodied by the renowned BERT neural network model, propelled rapid advancements in NLP models. BERT, founded on an expanded neural network architecture and pre-training, adeptly captures linguistic structures and contextual nuances, markedly enhancing the model's grasp of natural language and yielding remarkable outcomes. The subsequent GPT series similarly captures language structures through pre-training. As model scales continuously expand, large-scale models like GPT-3 astonishingly unveil emergent capabilities in reasoning and logic, tackling open-domain question-answering tasks. These expansive language models possess the prowess to process text, thereby amplifying the proficiency of other intelligent processing tasks. Their pioneering semantic comprehension abilities lay a robust foundation for applications such as knowledge extraction, information retrieval, and sophisticated dialogues, profoundly shaping the trajectory of diverse fields.
In summation, with computational power and neural network models evolving apace, machine learning and deep learning technologies have charted astonishing progress across multifarious domains. Nonetheless, challenges pertaining to quality, transparency, and cost containment persist. Navigating these challenges necessitates collaborative endeavors in both technological innovation and management, fostering the sustained and healthful evolution of artificial intelligence.

Diabetes, a chronic disease affecting millions of people worldwide, requires constant monitoring, precise management, and long-term support. The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) has paved new ways in healthcare, and the breakthrough language model developed by OpenAI, ChatGPT, has the potential to revolutionize diabetes management.
Combining advanced natural language processing techniques and machine learning capabilities, ChatGPT brings a range of benefits to diabetes management, from personalized assistance and data analysis to a deeper understanding of oneself, helping diabetic patients more effectively control their condition.
For people with diabetes, continuous support and monitoring is one of the main challenges they face. In this respect, ChatGPT’s availability provides ongoing help and guidance. Patients can ask questions about their symptoms, medication plans, or dietary issues, and ChatGPT can provide timely and reliable responses.
In addition to understanding and managing the disease, diabetics need to maintain a balanced diet. ChatGPT can serve as a “virtual nutritionist”, planning their meals based on individual dietary needs and preferences. In diabetes team care, it provides decision-making support for all team roles, including physicians, health educators, pharmacists, nutritionists, and others.
The massive amount of data produced by diabetics, such as blood glucose readings, insulin doses, exercise logs, and dietary information, can be difficult to interpret and analyze. ChatGPT excels at handling and understanding these complex data, making it a valuable tool in managing diabetes. ChatGPT can analyze and identify continuous blood glucose data and provide analysis and graphical results.
The utilization of ChatGPT in diabetes management and a deeper discussion of the various advantages it provides, including its value in personalized counseling, data analysis and academic research, as well as its importance in continuous support and monitoring. Fully leveraging AI, ChatGPT is an excellent auxiliary tool in clinical practice.

Purpose
Type 2 diabetes mellitus and hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection are serious health problem worldwide. The aim of the study is to screen the seroprevalence of HBV and HCV infection in patients with diabetes mellitus and to analyze the potential associations of HBV and HCV infections with clinical factors in this population.
Method
We conducted a retrospective analysis by enrolling 3199 patients with diabetes mellitus who visited Taipei Veterans General Hospital between March 2022 and February 2023. Each patient underwent serology testing to identify HBV and HCV infection by checking HBsAg and anti-HCV antibodies. We collected clinical characteristics, including age, sex, body mass index(BMI), blood pressure and blood samples were taken to measure fasting glucose and HbA1c level.
Result
Of the total 3199 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, 252(7.9%) patients tested positive for HBsAg and 81(2.5%) tested positive for anti-HCV antibodies. Among these patients, 7(0.2%) were found to have both HBsAg and anti-HCV. Regarding HCV infection, 44(54.2%) patients were newly diagnosed and 33 patients(75%) were referred to our Gastroenterology outpatient clinics. Among these 33 patients, 13 were found to have detectable HCV RNA and 12 of them received treatment with direct-acting antivirals(DAAs). Patients with hepatitis B infection were found to be younger compared to those without hepatitis B infection and patients with HCV infection were older and lower body weight compared to those without hepatitis C infection.
Conclusion
This study provides the importance of screening of HBV and HCV infection among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Purpose
Intensive glycemic control can potentially increase the risk of hypoglycemia especially using glinides, sulfonylureas and/or insulin in elderly persons with multiple chronic diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of glycemic overtreatment on severe hypoglycemia and all-causes mortality among old adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Method
Participants were T2DM, age ≥65 years old, being treated with glinides, sulfonylureas and/or insulin in 2006, 2011, and 2016. Glycemic overtreatment was defined as healthy patients with HbA1c <6.5%, intermediate health with HbA1c <7.0%, and poor health with HbA1c <7.5%. Severe hypoglycemia was ≥ 1 hypoglycemic hospitalization or emergency department visit after index HbA1c within one year. All-cause mortality was death after index HbA1c within one year. The Student’s t test and the chi-square test were used to compare continuous and categorical variables, respectively. Hazard ratios (HRs) for severe hypoglycemia and all-cause mortality within one year were estimated using Cox proportional hazard models. A proportional hazards model for the subdistribution of a competing risk was used to weigh competing risk of death with severe hypoglycemia. The time-dependent Cox proportional hazard model was used to evaluate the association of severe hypoglycemia with all-cause mortality.
Result
A total of 30,195 patients were included (mean age 73±6.5 years), of whom 8,671 (28.7%) patients was overtreated. Higher proportion of patients developed severe hypoglycemia in overtreated patients (5.3% vs 3.1%, P<0.001). The hypoglycemic risk (HR) of overtreated patients was 1.25 [1.04- 1.51], P=0.020. More patients died in overtreated patients (10.8% vs 5.8%, P<0.001). The all-cause mortality risk (HR) of overtreated patients was 1.14 [1.00- 1.31], P=0.055. The effect of severe hypoglycemia within 30 days on all-cause mortality within 1 year (HR) was 3.64 [2.50- 5.29], P<0.001.
Conclusion
Glycemic overtreatment is harmful to old patients with T2DM, with higher hypoglycemic and all-cause mortality risk. Individualized goal of glycemic target needs to be emphasized in our clinical practice.
THE BENEFITS OF GLYCEMIC CONTROL IN AMBULATORY VERY ELDERLY PATIENTS WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES- PRELIMINARY REPORT

Purpose
That intensive glucose control decreases the risk for multiple complications in patients with diabetes compared with moderate glucose control has been well documented by several trials over the last 15 years. However, most of these trials have either excluded patients aged >80 years or recruited too few to establish the benefit-to-risk ratio in the elderly. The benefits of glucose control remain uncertain for the heterogeneous population of older diabetic patients due to a lack of clinical trial data evaluating the benefits of long-term intensive glucose control in older patients. This study is designed to provide reliable evidence on the balance of benefits and risks conferred by glucose control in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes(T2DM).
Method
This is a prospective, randomized, open-labeled, controlled design to assess the benefits of treating elderly patients with type 2 diabetes. Patients with type 2 diabetes who are older than 80 years and able to walk by themselves were recruited. The goal in the standard therapy group is to maintain glycated hemoglobin below 7%, as compared with the conservative-therapy group which is to maintain glycated hemoglobin below 9%. The primary study outcomes are biochemical data was assessed during follow up period for at most 5 years.
Result
After 5 years of follow-up, the mean glycated hemoglobin level was lower in the standard care group (7.5%) than in the conservative-therapy group (7.9%). Follow up biochemical data revealed no significant difference of estimated Glomerular filtration rate, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein, uric acid, urine microalbumin to creatinine ratio , and between 2 groups. Significantly elevated fasting glucose and triglycerides level was found in conservative-therapy group.
Conclusion
Implementing a strategy of standard glucose control in elderly patients with T2DM can yield benefits in terms of fasting glucose and triglyceride levels. Further analysis of its impact on T2DM complications will be conducted in subsequent studies

Introduction
In 2001, the Bureau of Nation Health Insurance (NHI), Taiwan implanted a pay-for-performance (P4P) program for diabetes mellitus care to promote regular follow-up visits and exams/tests for better monitoring and glycemic control. In 2006, the NHI launched the “ Personal Annual Incentive by Performance” which includes the proportion of enrollees with HbA1c <7% as one of the four performance indicators. It is unclear the effect of annual incentive on glycemic control. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the impact of annual Incentive on glycemic overtreatment and characteristics of glycemic overtreatment in old patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Materials and Methods
Data of patients with T2DM in 2006, 2011, and 2016 were collected from 2 tertiary referral medical centers. The inclusion criteria were age ≥65 years old, using insulin, sulfonylureas, or glinides. The definition of glycemic overtreatment were healthy patients with HbA1c <6.5%, intermediate health with HbA1c <7.0%, and poor health with HbA1c <7.5%. The mean and standard deviation (SD) of continuous variables and number and percentage for categorical variables were used to describe the distributions of the cohorts. The Student’s t test and the chi-square test were used to compare continuous and categorical variables, respectively.
Results
A total of 30,195 patients (7,029 patients in 2006, 10,742 patients in 2011, and 12,424 patients in 2006) were included, of whom 8,671 (28.7%) patients was overtreated with an increasing rate overtime (27.0% in 2006, 28.2% in 2011, and 30.2% in 2016). The overtreated trend was similar overtime in both P4P participants and non-P4P participants. P4P participants had lower overtreated rate than non-P4P participants. The older the age has the higher overtreated rate, highest 37.3% in age ≥80 years old. The lower
the estimated glomerular rate (eGFR) has the higher overtreated rate, highest in eGFR <15 mL/min/1.73m2 63.5%. Nephrologist had the highest overtreated rate (38.1%); similar rate between endocrinologist and family physician, 24% vs 23.8%.
Conclusions
The glycemic overtreatment is increasing overtime in old patients with T2DM. P4P program lowered overtreatment rate. Different specialty education of individualized treatment goal to avoid glycemic overtreatment is needed.

Objective: Adequate iodine nutritional status has been defined by a median urinary iodine concentration (UIC) ≥100 μg/L in a population of lactating women. However, studies have shown that breast median iodine concentration (BMIC) can be completely different in groups of exclusively breastfeeding women with similar median UIC. Whether BMIC or UIC serves as an accurate biomarker for the assessment of iodine nutritional status in lactating women in Taiwan, an area with borderline iodine adequacy, is unknown. The study aims to evaluate the relationship between maternal UIC, BMIC, and thyroid function in lactating women and assess the influence of dietary habits on iodine nutritional status in northern Taiwan.
Methods: This cross-sectional hospital-based study enrolled breastfeeding women aged 20 years or above who visited Taipei Veterans General Hospital for routine post-partum checkups from August 2021 to February 2023. Each participant provided a random spot urine sample for measurement of UIC and two random breast milk samples including one sample from each breast for determination of BMIC. A blood sample was taken for measurement of thyroid profiles including TSH, free T4, anti-thyroglobulin antibodies, and anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies. A food frequency questionnaire was completed at the time of sample collection. Iodine measurements were performed using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.
Results: A total of 75 women with a mean age of 34.0 ± 4.1 years old (range: 24-43 years) were enrolled. The median UIC of the studied women was 87.7 μg/L (IQR: 42.6 - 125.9 μg/L), and this suggests insufficient iodine status (recommended median UIC ≥100 µg/L). However, the overall median BMIC was 168.4 μg/L, which means that the amount of iodine delivered to the infants is sufficient (recommended median BMIC ≥100 µg/L). The positive predictive value for detecting iodine insufficiency using UIC alone was only 22.0% because 42.7% (n=32) of the studied women would be misclassified. There was a positive correlation between UIC and BMIC (Pearson correlation coefficient: 0.608); the correlation between UIC, BMIC, and thyroid function was weak. The most commonly consumed iodine-containing food type was dairy products (66.6% ingesting dairy products ≥3 days/week). Seaweed, fish, and seafood were less frequency eaten (median intake frequency: one day per week). More than 80% of the women either took multivitamin frequently every day or never took multivitamin (everyday: 29.3%, never: 52.0%). Women not taking multivitamin had a higher likelihood of having BMIC <100 μg/L (adjusted OR: 13.65, 95% CI:1.48 -125.92, p =0.02).
Conclusions: The result of the current study suggests that BMIC is an important biomarker to determine iodine nutritional status in lactating women. The iodine nutritional status may be incorrectly classified based on measuring UIC alone.

2 Department of Internal Medicine, School of Medicine, College of Medicine, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan.
Purpose
In patients with primary aldosteronism, adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is a gold standard for subtype classification. Even with successful cannulation of bilateral adrenal veins, AVS is thought to be failed when bilateral aldosterone suppression (BAS) is found, and repeating AVS is usually suggested. In our center, our successful cannulation rate of AVS was relatively low. Thus, we used NP-59 SPECT/CT to subtype the patients with BAS rather than repeating AVS. In addition, we conducted a review of the related literature with similar cases.
Method
We report a retrospective observational study of patients receiving AVS in a medical center in Southern Taiwan.
Result
From 2012 to 2022, twenty-seven patients received sequential cosyntropin-stimulated AVS, and thirteen of twenty-seven (48%) had bilateral successful cannulation. Three of thirteen (23%) patients had BAS. All of them had discordant findings with CT. Thereafter, they received unilateral adrenalectomies according to the findings on NP-59 SPECT/CT, followed by complete clinical and biochemical success.
Conclusion
Our results emphasized that the results of AVS were not reliable in the presence of BAS. In contrast, NP-59 SPECT/CT is a less technically dependent procedure and correctly guided lateralization in our cases with complete clinical and biochemical success. Our experiences suggest NP-59 SPECT/CT might have a lower false negative rate in patients with BAS than those without BAS. The role of NP-59 SPECT/CT in patients with BAS requires further study.

Purpose
Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is a neuroendocrine tumor of the C cells of thyroid gland. After total thyroidectomy, regular follow-up of tumor markers for detection of persistent or recurrent disease is important. 18F-FDOPA PET is first choice of imaging study in patients with persistent/ recurrent MTC. However, commercial product of FDOPA is not available in many countries including Taiwan. 68Ga-DOTATE PET may be helpful for monitoring disease status when cross-sectional images fail to locate the source of elevated calcitonin or carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA).
Method
We reported a case with recurrent MTC identified by 68Ga-DOTATE PET/CT.
Result
A 77-year-old woman had MTC, stage I diagnosed in 2003 and underwent total thyroidectomy at that time. A progressive increase in calcitonin and CEA was detected from 2008 to 2022. However, neck ultrasonography, computed tomography, bone scan and whole body 18F-FDG PET all failed to locate the recurrent tumors. 68Ga-DOTATE PET was performed and showed an enhancing lesion over the right thyroid bed. The patient underwent right neck dissection and several black lymph nodes were excised. The pathologic report of the lymph nodes confirmed metastatic MTC.
Conclusion
68Ga-DOTATE PET is more sensitive in identifying recurrent or metastatic MTC than 18F-FDG-PET. The sensitivity increases with elevation of calcitonin and CEA. 68Ga-DOTATE PET should be considered if conventional imaging study is not able to detect persistent or recurrent disease.

HYPOGLYCEMIA OF PANCREATIC NEUROENDOCRINE TUMOR: LONG JOURNEY CASE REPORT
Y-Y Tsai, W-C Wu, W-Y Chiu, J-Y Lu, S-R Shih, P-L Chen, C-Y WangDivision of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Department of Internal Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan.
Purpose
Insulinoma, insulin autoimmune syndrome and nesidioblastosis are rare diseases which manifest hypoglycemia in adult patients.
Method
We presented an 84-year-old man, being diagnosed with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor with coexistence of insulin autoimmune syndrome and nesidioblastosis.
Result
The patient presented with symptoms of consciousness change three times within three months. In the latest episode, he had consciousness disturbance with a fingerstick blood glucose of 36 mg/dL (reference 70-140 mg/dL). The symptoms relieved soon after glucose water infusion. He was sent to the emergency department of National Taiwan University Hospital and was admitted to survey recurrent episodes of severe hypoglycemia. There were neither intracranial lesion by neuroimaging nor cardiac origin problems by ultrasound cardiography and 24-hour Holter electrocardiogram. 72-hour fasting test was performed. 7 hours later, serum glucose of 42 mg/dL (reference 70-100 mg/dL) developed, with C-peptide of 3.10 ng/mL (reference 0.78-5.19 ng/mL), insulin level of > 600 μIU/mL (reference < 28.8 μIU/mL), and insulin-to-C-peptide ratio > 1. Moreover, chromogranin A level of 95.4 ng/mL (reference < 101 ng/mL) and auto-insulin Ab of 80.8 % (reference > 10 %) were detected. Other autoimmune screening tests were negative, but insulin autoimmune syndrome was highly suspected biochemically. Possible culprit medication of clopidegrol was changed to cilostazol. Abdomen MRI revealed no significant pancreatic lesion. Endoscopic ultrasound demonstrated a 0.9 mm pancreatic body tumor. Medical therapy rather than operation was preferred by his family due to old age, thus endoscopic ultrasound with aspiration cytology was performed. Biopsy-proven neuroendocrine tumor with SSTR 5/2a focally positive was noted. Ethanol injection therapy was carried out. However, hypoglycemia events with persistent hyperinsulinemia were noticed in the following days. Sequential endoscopic ultrasound disclosed a 2.9 mm nodule at pancreatic neck and a biopsy-proven pancreatic tail nesidioblastosis. Sandostatin LAR 30 mg was given monthly as maintenance therapy. Frequent meals were still educated to avoid hypoglycemia.
Conclusion
Insulinoma with concomitant insulin autoimmune syndrome and nesidioblastosis is rare.

Purpose
Cushing syndrome is a disease of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis characterized by an excess of circulating glucocorticoids. Once the diagnosis of Cushing syndrome is confirmed, it is important to determine the cause. Ectopic Cushing syndrome refers to non-pituitary tumors that secrete ACTH. CT and MRI are typically the initial modalities used to localize ectopic Cushing syndrome. However, in some cases, such as pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors, diagnosing them with cross-sectional imaging can be challenging due to their small size or proximity to vasculature. Additionally, imaging fails to identify the cause in up to 20% of ectopic Cushing syndrome cases. Functional imaging modalities, such as 68Ga-DOTATATE, have now been introduced for the survey of ectopic Cushing’s syndrome. In this report, we present two difficult cases of ectopic Cushing syndrome failed to be localized using 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT.
Method
We present two difficult cases of ectopic Cushing syndrome failed to be localized using 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT.
Result
A 63-year-old man is referred to our hospital for Cushing syndrome survey. His presentations are resistant hypertension, body weight gain, general edema, moon face, buffalo hump, proximal muscle weakness for months and osteoporosis of L spine. Loss diurnal change of serum ACTH and cortisol, elevated saliva cortisol, elevated 24-hr urine free cortisol, DDAVP test positive, but the results of high-dose dexamethasone test and bilateral inferior petrosal sinus sampling (BIPSS) indicate ectopic Cushing syndrome. However, brain MRI, chest CT and whole body 18F-FDG PET fails to locate the origin. 68Ga-DOTATE PET is performed but still reveals no specific findings.
Another case is a 74-year-old woman whose initial presentation is progressive lower legs pitting edema, body weight gain, polyuria, blurred vision, moon face, buffalo hump and pendulous abdomen. As previous case, series survey including DDAVP, high dose dexamethasone test and BIPSS indicate ectopic Cushing’s syndrome. However, in this case, pituitary MRI found a 4.5 x 5.4 mm nodular lesion in right posterior pituitary gland. A pulmonary nodule over LUL is found on Chest CT, and abdominal CT reveals hyperplasia of bilateral adrenal glands. Whole body 18F-FDG PET reveals high function
of adrenal glands. Because it fails to locate the origin of cortisol secretion, 68Ga-DOTATE PET is performed which results no specific findings.
Conclusion
68Ga-DOTATE PET is reported as a better tool in localizing ectopic Cushing syndrome than 18F-FDG-PET and should be considered if conventional imaging study is not able to detect persistent or recurrent disease. However, the experience of 68Ga-DOTATE PET to localize ectopic Cushing syndrome will be further explored in our clinical practice.
