[Bone metastases in epidural invasion of gastrinoma].
Malignant gastrinoma is a nonbeta islet cell tumor which rarely disseminates to the bone. However, in the case reported herein, diffuse metastatic bone disease with symptomatic epidural spread developed. Somatostatin and 99mTc-HDP bone scans demonstrated hot spots in the same sites, establishing that the bone lesions contained somatostatin receptor. Irradiation was effective in relieving pain.
