Özet
Rectal neuroendocrine carcinomas constitute <1% of all neuroendocrine carcinomas and <1% of all gastrointestinal tract malignancies. Cutaneous metastases of rectal neuroendocrine carcinoma are rarer than visceral metastases. We represent a 71-year-old man who was diagnosed with neuroendocrine tumor grade 3 originating from the rectum 1 year ago. He was referred for18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography for restaging after 6 cycles of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Intensely increased18F-FDG uptake in the right cutaneous inguinal region was consistent with neuroendocrine carcinoma metastasis with biopsy from the same region.
