Abstract
Rickets, one of the leading causes of bony deformities and short stature, can be calciopenic (inciting event is defective intestinal calcium absorption) or phosphopenic (inciting event is phosphaturia). Early diagnosis and timely treatment of rickets are crucial for correction of the limb deformities. Guidelines exist for nutritional rickets, but the diagnosis and management of the relatively uncommon forms of rickets are complex. This consensus aims to formulate a simplified diagnostic approach for rickets, especially in resource-limited settings. The consensus statement has been formulated by a 29-member committee from the Endocrine Society of Bengal. The process included forming a working group, conducting a literature review, identifying controversies, drafting, and discussion at a consensus meeting. Participants rated their agreement with the clinical practice points, and a 70% consensus was required. Input integration and further review led to the final consensus statements. Children with suspected rickets should initially be examined for distinctive skeletal deformities. The diagnosis of rickets should be confirmed with characteristic radiographic abnormalities. It is advisable to order tests for serum calcium, inorganic phosphorus (Pi), liver function, 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), parathyroid hormone, creatinine, and potassium in all patients with rickets. In cases of refractory rickets, it is also recommended that assessments be conducted for spot urine calcium, Pi, creatinine, and, blood gas analysis. In children with rickets and metabolic acidosis, tests for glycosuria, uricosuria, aminoaciduria, low molecular weight proteinuria, and albuminuria should be conducted. In children with resistant calciopenic rickets and sufficient serum 25OHD levels, serum 1,25(OH)2D concentration should be tested. 1,25(OH)2 D and fibroblast growth factor 23 estimation is useful for certain forms of phosphopenic rickets.

Abstract
Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor (PMT) is a rare tumor causing bone complications and myopathy. Histologically, PMT displays a mix of spindled cells, osteoclast-like giant cells, basophilic matrix, and flocculent or "grungy" calcification. Here we describe a case of PMT in the right hip and proximal femur, initially suspected to be multiple myeloma, presenting with osteolytic lesions and elevated alkaline phosphatase. Tests for malignancy were negative, but a subsequent biopsy confirmed PMT. The patient underwent hip biopsy, femur resection, and hemiarthroplasty, with follow-up MRI recommended.

Orthopedic Surgical Treatment of Patients with Tumor-induced Osteomalacia Located in the Hip Bones: A Retrospective Analysis of 10 Years in a Single Center. Orthop Surg 2024; 16:1871-1883.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The orthopedic surgical treatment strategies for patients with tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) require improvement, especially for patients where the causative tumors are located in surgically challenging areas, requiring a greater degree of in-depth investigation. This work aims to summarize and investigate clinical features and orthopedic surgical treatment effects of patients with tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), whose causative tumors are located in the hip bones. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of all patients diagnosed with culprit tumors located in the hip bones who underwent surgical treatment at the orthopedic bone and soft tissue tumor sub-professional group of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2013 to January 2023. This retrospective study summarized the clinical data, preoperative laboratory test results, imaging findings, surgery-related data, perioperative changes in blood phosphorus levels, and postoperative follow-up data of all patients who met the inclusion criteria. Normally distributed data are presented as mean and standard deviation, while non-normally distributed data are shown as the means and 25th and 75th interquartile ranges. RESULTS The clinical diagnostic criteria for TIO were met by all 16 patients, as confirmed by pathology after surgery. Among the 16 patients, we obtained varying degrees of bone pain and limited mobility (16/16), often accompanied by difficulties in sitting up, walking, and fatigue. An estimated 62.5% (10/16) of patients had significantly shorter heights during the disease stages. All 16 patients underwent surgical treatment for tumors in the hip bones, totaling 21 surgeries. In the pathogenic tumor, there were 16 cases of skeletal involvement and none of pure soft tissue involvement. Out of the 16 patients, 13 cases had a gradual increase in blood phosphorus levels following the latest orthopedic surgery, which was followed up for 12 months to 10 years. Due to unresolved conditions after the original surgery, four patients received reoperation intervention. Two cases of refractory TIO did not improve in their disease course. CONCLUSION In summary, the location of the causative tumor in the hip bone is hidden and diverse, and there is no defined orthopedic surgical intervention method for this case in clinical practice. For patients with TIO where the tumors are located in the hip bones, surgical treatment is difficult and the risk of postoperative recurrence is high. Careful identification of the tumor edge using precise preoperative positioning and qualitative diagnosis is crucial to ensure adequate boundaries for surgical resection to reduce the likelihood of disease recurrence and improve prognosis.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome with a variable presentation. We present a case of a 55-year-old female who presented with pain in the bilateral hip region for the last two years. On routine biochemical evaluation, she was found to have hypophosphatemia with an X-ray of the bilateral hip region showing an acute stress fracture in the bilateral intertrochanteric region of the femur. An evaluation for the cause of hypophosphatemia revealed renal phosphate loss with low percentage tubular reabsorption of phosphate (% TRP) of 83% (reference range: 85-95%), with tubular maximum phosphate reabsorption per unit glomerular filtration rate (TmP/GFR) of 2.07 mg/dL (reference range: 2.5-4.5 mg/dL (0.67 mmol/L; range: 0.84-1.23 mmol/L)). Further evaluation revealed elevated levels of intact fibroblast growth factor, 445.7 pg/mL (reference range: 23-95 pg/mL). A 68-Gallium DOTA-1-Nal3-octreotide (DOTANOC) PET-CT revealed a focal increased tracer uptake with a lytic lesion at the lateral metaphyseal aspect of the proximal right tibia, suspicious of somatostatin receptor avid mesenchymal tumor, leading to the diagnosis of TIO. Definitive treatment with complete surgical excision of the tumor was done. Postoperatively, her phosphorus level was within the normal target range even without oral phosphate supplementation. While it is a rare condition, a proper and systemic workup can lead to timely diagnosis and management of this debilitating benign condition.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is an exceedingly rare paraneoplastic condition characterized by hypophosphatemia, osteomalacia, fragility fractures, and fatigue. A 39-year-old man was assessed for hemoptysis, pathological rib fractures, and fatigue, and was found to have a chest mass with lung metastasis. Biopsy of the mass suggested high-grade epithelioid and spindle cell neoplasm. He was initially treated for soft tissue sarcoma with an ifosfamide-based regimen and developed Fanconi syndrome that resolved on cessation of ifosfamide. Serum phosphate remained low. A low tubular maximum reabsorption of phosphate to glomerular filtration rate ratio (TmP/GFR) indicated disproportionate phosphaturia, while a severely elevated fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) level enabled a diagnosis of TIO. He was started on phosphate and calcitriol supplementation. Subsequent next-generation sequencing demonstrated a RET-fusion mutation, leading to reclassification of his malignancy to a sarcomatoid non-small cell lung carcinoma. He was switched to selpercatinib, a targeted RET-kinase inhibitor approved for locally advanced or metastatic RET-fusion-positive solid tumors. This induced tumor remission with subsequent normalization of his FGF23 levels and hypophosphatemia. Despite the presence of a confounding etiology like drug-induced Fanconi syndrome, persistence of hypophosphatemia should prompt a workup of TIO, especially in the presence of a tumor.

Abstract
Introduction Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), is a rare acquired paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by defective bone mineralization, caused by the overproduction of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) by a tumor. Material and methods We conducted a systematic review to identify all case reports of TIO, focusing on those associated with mesenchymal tumors. We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) consensus, and we included patients with a diagnosis of TIO and histological confirmation of phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors or resolution of the condition after treatment of the tumor. Bibliographical searches were carried out until December 2023 in the Cochrane Library, Medline and Embase, as well as congress abstracts online. Results We identified 769 articles with 1979 cases reported. Most patients were adults, with a higher incidence on men. Disease duration before diagnosis is a mean of 4.8 years. Most tumors were histologically classified as PMT. Lower limbs were the predominant location. Hypophosphatemia was present in 99.8 % of patients. The FGF23 was elevated at diagnosis in 95.5 %. Resection of the tumor was the treatment of choice in most of patients. After resection, there was a clinical improvement in 97.6 % of cases, and serum phosphorus and FGF23 levels returned to normal ranges in 91.5 % and 81.4 % of the patients, respectively. Conclusion TIO is usually misdiagnosed with rheumatological or musculoskeletal disorders. The diagnosis should be suspected in patients with hypophosphatemic osteomalacia, and the measurement of serum FGF23 can be useful for diagnosis and management.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), also known as oncogenic osteomalacia, is very rare, with about 1000 reported cases globally. Removing most TIO culprit tumors requires the evaluation and intervention of orthopedic doctors. However, orthopedic doctors often have a poor understanding of the optical treatment of TIO due to its rarity. In addition, most TIO patients lack specific clinical manifestations. Also, the clinical localization and qualitative diagnosis of TIO are difficult and thus can easily be misdiagnosed and mistreated. Furthermore, the true incidence rate of TIO may be underestimated. Although many breakthroughs have been made in exploring the pathogenesis, clinical diagnosis, and treatment of TIO, rational and standardized orthopedic surgical treatment experience summary and sorting for TIO patients are lacking. In this article, the recent experience and progress in the field of orthopedic surgical treatment for TIO globally have been summarized, providing a theoretical basis and new clinical practice guidance for the rational treatment of TIO patients.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is rare paraneoplastic syndrome of hypophosphatemic osteomalacia, caused by phosphaturic factors secreted by small mesenchymal origin tumors with distinct pathological features, called 'phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors'. FGF23 is the most well-characterized of the phosphaturic factors. Tumors are often small and located anywhere in the body from head to toe, which makes the localisation challenging. Functional imaging by somatostatin receptor-based PET imaging is the first line investigation, which should be followed with CT or MRI based anatomical imaging. Once localised, complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice, which brings dramatic resolution of symptoms. Medical management in the form of phosphate and active vitamin D supplements is given as a bridge to surgical management or in inoperable/non-localised patients. This review provides an overview of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, pathology, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of TIO, including the recent advances and directions for future research in this field.

Abstract
Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor is a rare tumor characterized by paraneoplastic osteomalacia. The diagnosis is often delayed because of nonspecific symptoms and difficulty to localize the tumor. In this study we report a case of PMT of the left femur detected by Ga-68-DOTATATE PET-CT with radiological features mimicking osteoid osteoma. We report a 31-year-old female patient who presented to our hospital for evaluation due to progressive bone pain and muscle weakness. Her laboratory data showed hypophosphatemia and increased fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) together with reduced bone mineral density on bone densitometry. The diagnosis of PMT was suspected and the tumor was identified on Ga-68-DOTATATE PET-CT as a focal uptake in a lucent lesion of the left femoral head with a central sclerotic dot mimicking a nidus as seen in osteoid osteoma. The lesion was treated with percutaneous radiofrequency ablation. Laboratory tests and bone densitometry rapidly improved post-treatment. The present case emphasizes the difficulty to diagnose PMT due to its nonspecific biochemical and clinical presentation and the relevance of functional imaging for locating these tumors despite different radiological presentation.

Abstract
Recently, advancement of somatostatin receptor (SSTR) imaging and theragnostic approach using peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) have changed the paradigm of diagnosis and management of neuroendocrine tumor. 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT can diagnose the lung carcinoids with high SSTR expression. With combination of 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT and 18F-FDG PET/CT, tumor heterogeneity of lung carcinoid can be identified, which may guide optimal patient selection for PRRT. PRRT may be an effective and safe treatment of advanced lung carcinoids during progression with first-line somatostatin analog therapy. This review provides updates on the diagnosis and management of lung carcinoids, focusing on SSTR imaging and PRRT.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by mesenchymal tumors that secrete fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Patients present with progressive bone pain, muscle weakness, and fragility fractures. TIO is characterized by hypophosphatemia, excess renal phosphate excretion, and low/inappropriately normal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2 D) levels. Rarity and enigmatic clinical presentation of TIO contribute to limited awareness among the medical community. Accordingly, appropriate diagnostic tests may not be requested, leading to delayed diagnosis and poorer patient outcomes. We have developed a global guidance document to improve the knowledge of TIO in the medical community, enabling the recognition of patients with TIO and appropriate referral. We provide recommendations aiding diagnosis, referral, and treatment, helping promote a global standard of patient management. We reviewed the literature and conducted a three-round Delphi survey of TIO experts. Statements were drafted based on published evidence and expert opinions (≥70% consensus required for final recommendations). Serum phosphate should be measured in patients presenting with chronic muscle pain or weakness, fragility fractures, or bone pain. Physical examination should establish features of myopathy and identify masses that could be causative tumors. Priority laboratory evaluations should include urine/serum phosphate and creatinine to assess renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate and TmP/GFR, alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 1,25(OH)2 D, and FGF23. Patients with the clinical/biochemical suspicion of TIO should be referred to a specialist for diagnosis confirmation, and functional imaging should be used to localize causative tumor(s). Recommended treatment is tumor resection or, with unresectable/unidentifiable tumors, phosphate salts plus active vitamin D, or burosumab.

Abstract
Background Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare, tumor-induced, metabolic bone disorder, the exact incidence of which is unknown. The most common cause of TIO is hypersecretion of tumor-derived fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Surgical resection can cure TIO in most cases, while for patients with TIO who are ineligible for surgery, biologic antibodies targeting FGF23 can be used as treatment. However, the diagnosis of TIO is more difficult than its treatment as the initial presentation can be misleading or nonspecific; thus, diagnosing TIO remains a clinical challenge. Case Description Herein, we present a case of TIO originating from the nasal cavity neoplasm in which the patient also had a rare, thymic-derived, tumorous lesion. A diagnosis of osteoporosis was subsequently made, and a disorder of phosphorus metabolism was discovered. After determining that the patient was exhibiting signs of TIO, we used gallium-68 dotatate positron emission tomography/computed tomography (68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT) to locate the tumor position. Conclusions This case report emphasizes the importance of electrolyte testing, which is potentially helpful for quickly identifying the presence of disorders of phosphorus metabolism in suspected patients. Subsequently, appropriate imaging techniques (e.g., 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT) should be used to identify potential TIO lesions. Most patients with TIO can be treated successfully following diagnosis. Keywords Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO); gallium-68 dotatate positron emission tomography/computed tomography (68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT); phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor (PMTs); weakness; case report.

[PMID: 37033241 PMCID: PMC10081489 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1116793] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2022] [Accepted: 01/30/2023] [Indexed: 04/11/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In this paper, we present a rare case of tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) and a literature review of this rare disease. METHODS A case of TIO of the isolated sphenoid sinus was reported. Furthermore, the clinical features of TIO in the sphenoid sinus and other sinonasal sinuses were also reviewed and summarized. RESULTS A 35-year-old man with muscle weakness and lower back pain came to the Department of Neurology. No obvious neurological disease was found; however, magnetic resonance imaging of the extremities accidentally showed a tumor in the axilla. Bone scintigraphy showed suspicious bone metastasis. Hypophosphatemia was neglected. Interestingly, 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine-18]fluoro-d-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) detected a tumor in the axilla and another in the sphenoid sinus, but only the tumor in the sphenoid sinus had somatostatin receptor (SSTR) expression in 68-gallium 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid octreotate (Ga-68 DOTATATE) PET/CT. The sphenoid sinus tumor was proven to be a phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor (PMT), and the phosphate levels returned to normal after surgery. The literature review showed only 17 cases of TIOs that occurred in the sphenoid sinus, with an average age of 43.3 ± 13.7 years. Only three cases of TIOs in the sphenoid sinus did not invade the nasal cavity or other paranasal sinuses, which could be identified as isolated sphenoid sinus diseases. We compared the clinical features of sphenoid TIOs with those of non-sphenoid sinonasal TIOs, and it was found that the concentration of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D in the group with sphenoid TIOs was much higher than that in the group with non-sphenoid sinonasal TIOs. A total of 153 cases of TIOs in the sinonasal sinus were reviewed. The ethmoid sinus was found to be the major site (64.7%), followed by the nasal cavity (50.3%), maxillary sinus (19.0%), frontal sinus (16.4%), and sphenoid sinus (11.8%). There were 66 patients (43.1%) who showed tumors invading more than one sinus. Most of the tumors (69.3%) were diagnosed as PMTs by pathology, followed by hemangiopericytoma (14.3%). Immunostaining was beneficial in the differential diagnosis of these tumors; however, larger sample sizes are needed for better accuracy. CONCLUSION TIO in the sinonasal sinus, especially in the sphenoid sinus, is rare. Moreover, isolated sphenoid sinus disease can be easily misdiagnosed. When the clinical manifestation of osteomalacia is atypical, associating it with sphenoid sinus disease is even more difficult. Thus, TIO in the sphenoid sinus needs further exploration.

Clinical Challenges in Diagnosis, Tumor Localization and Treatment of Tumor-Induced Osteomalacia: Outcome of a Retrospective Surveillance. J Bone Miner Res 2022; 37:1479-1488.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is an acquired fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23)-related hypophosphatemic osteomalacia caused by phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors (PMTs) developed in the bone or soft tissue. Diagnostic delay should be addressed, and ideal techniques to localize PMTs and efficient treatment options should be explored to improve the outcomes of this rare disease. To clarify the detailed clinical course and outcomes of TIO patients, retrospective questionnaire surveys were conducted among physicians from the Japanese Society for Bone and Mineral Research (JSBMR) and the Japan Endocrine Society (JES). The primary survey collected the number of TIO patients between January 2007 and December 2018. The secondary survey aimed to obtain the detailed characteristics, laboratory data, and outcomes. Eighty-eight patients (52 males, mean: 52 years old) were included, and 24 patients were clinically diagnosed with TIO without localized PMTs. The median duration from the onset to detection of high FGF23 levels was 3.4 years, with 77 patients being initially misdiagnosed. Among the methods used to detect small, localized PMTs (≤10 mm), fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography and somatostatin receptor scintigraphy were less sensitive than somatostatin receptor positron emission tomography/computed tomography (SRPET/CT). Systemic venous sampling (SVS) of FGF23 was performed in 53 patients; among them, SVS was considered useful for detecting localized PMTs in 45 patients with diverse tumor sizes. Finally, 45 patients achieved biochemical remission by surgery, 39 patients continued pharmaceutical treatment, including burosumab (11 patients), and four patients died. These results encouraged us to further increase the awareness of TIO and to improve the accessibility of SRPET/CT and SVS. Further evidence about the efficacy of new pharmaceutical treatments is awaited. © 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
CONTEXT Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome, usually caused by small, benign, and slow-growing phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors. Clinically, TIO is characterized by renal phosphate leak, causing hypophosphatemia and osteomalacia. This review was performed to assess the clinical characteristics of TIO patients described worldwide so far. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION On June 26, 2021, a systematic search was performed in Medline, Google Scholar, Google book, and Cochrane Library using the terms: "tumor induced osteomalacia," "oncogenic osteomalacia," "hypophosphatemia." There were no language restrictions. This review was performed according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses criteria. EVIDENCE RESULTS Overall, 1725 TIO cases were collected. TIO was more frequent in adult men, who showed a higher incidence of fractures compared with TIO women. The TIO-causing neoplasms were identified in 1493 patients. The somatostatin receptor-based imaging modalities have the highest sensitivity for the identification of TIO-causing neoplasms. TIO-causing neoplasms were equally located in bone and soft tissues; the latter showed a higher prevalence of fractures and deformities. The surgery is the preferred TIO definitive treatment (successful in > 90% of patients). Promising nonsurgical therapies are treatments with burosumab in TIO patients with elevated fibroblast growth factor-23 levels, and with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs in patients with TIO-causing neoplasm identified by somatostatin receptor-based imaging techniques. CONCLUSION TIO occurs preferentially in adult men. The TIO clinical expressiveness is more severe in men as well as in patients with TIO-causing neoplasms located in soft tissues. Treatments with burosumab and with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs are the most promising nonsurgical therapies.

Abstract
CONTEXT Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic disorder caused by excessive fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) secretion. FGF23 immunohistochemistry (IHC) is proposed as a useful adjunctive marker to confirm TIO diagnosis. However, it often stains focally, limiting its diagnostic utility. OBJECTIVE This work aimed to compare the diagnostic performance between somatostatin receptor 2A (SSTR2A) and FGF23 IHC for TIO. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed TIO-diagnosed patients in Severance Hospital between July 2006 and May 2020. Histologic evaluation was performed using histoscore (H score) (expression area proportion score [0-2] × intensity score [1-3], [total, 0-6]). FGF23 and SSTR2A IHC were performed using unstained slides from 18 localized TIO patients and 9 and 15 non-TIO controls with bone and soft-tissue tumors, respectively. SSTR2A positivity was defined as cytoplasmic, membranous, or Golgi staining in more than 1% of tumor cells, and negativity as nonspecific nuclear staining. FGF23 positivity was defined as cytoplasmic expression in more than 1% of the tumor area and negativity as nonspecific nuclear staining. RESULTS Suspicious lesions were successfully detected in 14 of 15 patients who underwent 68Ga-DOTATOC scans. Diffuse cytoplasmic SSTR2A expression was identified in all TIO patients and focal weak nuclear staining in 12 of 15 controls. FGF23 cytoplasmic expression was identified in 11 of 18 TIO patients and diffuse nuclear staining in 9 of 9 controls. The H score was higher in SSTR2A than in FGF23 IHC (median [interquartile range]: 6 [6-6] vs 1 [0-2], P < .001). CONCLUSION SSTR2A IHC with H-score quantification might be a more sensitive, adjunctive diagnostic tool than FGF23 IHC for TIO diagnosis.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study is to compare the sensitivity of 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 and 68Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT for detecting the responsible tumor of tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) and investigate if 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 PET/CT can identify the culprit tumor of TIO in multiple suspicious lesions in 68Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT. Methods A total of 19 patients with suspected TIO were prospectively recruited in this study. Each patient underwent whole-body PET/CT scan 40–60 min postinjection using 68Ga-DOTA-TATE and 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 on the same PET/CT, respectively in sequence, and on consecutive days. The diagnosis of TIO was confirmed by the combination of the postsurgical pathological results of the tumor and clinical information. Results Among the 19 patients with TIO who were included in this study, culprit tumors from all patients were confirmed pathologically. 68Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT positively identified the causative tumor in 18/19 patients, whereas 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 PET/CT was positive in 11/19 patients (94.7% vs. 57.9%, respectively; p < 0.05). 68Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT demonstrated more than one increased focal activity in 7 patients for a total of 16 lesions (3 lesions each in 2 patients and 2 lesions each in the rest 5 patients). However, seven of these 16 lesions showed concordant results on 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 PET/CT by demonstrating increased activity (one lesion in each of the 7 patients). The surgical specimens of the lesions in these 7 patients confirmed the phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor. A total of 11 culprit tumors were positive in both 68Ga-DOTA-TATE and 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 PET/CT. The SUVmax of 11 culprit tumors was significantly higher on 68Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT compared with that on 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 PET/CT (17.8 ± 12.5 vs. 6.8 ± 6.2; p < 0.05). Conclusions 68Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT is more sensitive to 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 PET/CT in the detection of the culprit tumor of TIO. However, 68Ga-DOTA-JR11 PET/CT might be helpful to identify the tumor in multiple suspicious lesions in 68Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT. Clinical Trial Registration clinicaltrials.gov, identifier NCT 04689893.

[PMID: 34147708 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2021.116064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2021] [Revised: 06/11/2021] [Accepted: 06/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), also known as oncogenic osteomalacia, is a rare acquired paraneoplastic disease, which is challenging to diagnose and treat. TIO is characterized by hypophosphatemia resulting from excess levels of tumor-secreted fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), one of the key physiological regulators of phosphate metabolism. Elevated FGF23 results in renal phosphate wasting and compromised vitamin D activation, ultimately resulting in osteomalacia. Patients typically present with progressive and non-specific symptoms, including bone pain, multiple pathological fractures, and progressive muscle weakness. Diagnosis is often delayed or missed due to the non-specific nature of complaints and lack of disease awareness. Additionally, the disease-causing tumour is often difficult to detect and localize because they are often small, lack localizing symptoms and signs, and dwell in widely variable anatomical locations. Measuring serum/urine phosphate should be an inherent diagnostic component when assessing otherwise unexplained osteomalacia, fractures and weakness. In cases of hypophosphatemia with inappropriate (sustained) phosphaturia and inappropriately normal or frankly low 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D, differentiation of the potential causes of renal phosphate wasting should include measurement of FGF23, and TIO should be considered. While patients experience severe disability without treatment, complete excision of the tumour is typically curative and results in a dramatic reversal of symptoms. Two additional key current unmet needs in optimizing TIO management are: (1 and 2) the considerable delay in diagnosis and consequent delay between the onset of symptoms and surgical resection; and (2) alternative management. These may be addressed by raising awareness of TIO, and taking into consideration the accessibility and variability of different healthcare infrastructures. By recognizing the challenges associated with the diagnosis and treatment of TIO and by applying a stepwise approach with clear clinical practice guidelines, patient care and outcomes will be improved in the future.

Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13205172. [PMID: 34680321 PMCID: PMC8533943 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13205172] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2021] [Revised: 10/03/2021] [Accepted: 10/11/2021] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Functional imaging methods and, in particular, positron emission tomography (PET) using several radiopharmaceuticals may play a pivotal role in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms including neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) located in different sites, paraganglioma (PGL) and neuroblastoma (NB), recurrent medullary thyroid carcinoma (rMTC) and aggressive neuroendocrine neoplasms. Several radiopharmaceuticals can be used in this setting such as Gallium-68 somatostatin analogues (68Ga-SSA), Fluorine-18 fluorodihydroxyphenylalanine (18F-FDOPA), Gallium-68 exendin-4 (68Ga-exendin-4), Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG). This umbrella review provides an evidence-based summary about meta-analyses on diagnostic performance, prognostic value, clinical impact and safety of PET with different radiopharmaceuticals in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms. Overall, evidence-based data support the use of PET with different radiopharmaceuticals in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms but with specific indications for each radiopharmaceutical. Abstract Background: Several meta-analyses have reported quantitative data about the diagnostic performance, the prognostic value, the impact on management and the safety of positron emission tomography (PET) including related hybrid modalities (PET/CT or PET/MRI) using different radiopharmaceuticals in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms. We performed an umbrella review of published meta-analyses to provide an evidence-based summary. Methods: A comprehensive literature search of meta-analyses listed in PubMed/MEDLINE and Cochrane Library databases was carried out (last search date: 30 June 2021). Results: Thirty-four published meta-analyses were selected and summarized. About the diagnostic performance: 68Ga-SSA PET yields high diagnostic performance in patients with NETs and PGL; 18F-FDOPA PET yields good diagnostic performance in patients with intestinal NETs, PGL, NB, being the best available PET method in detecting rMTC; 68Ga-exendin-4 PET has good diagnostic accuracy in detecting insulinomas; 18F-FDG PET has good diagnostic performance in detecting aggressive neuroendocrine neoplasms. About the prognostic value: 68Ga-SSA PET has a recognized prognostic value in well-differentiated NETs, whereas 18F-FDG PET has a recognized prognostic value in aggressive neuroendocrine neoplasms. A significant clinical impact of 68Ga-SSA PET and related hybrid modalities in patients with NETs was demonstrated. There are no major toxicities or safety issues related to the use of PET radiopharmaceuticals in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms. Conclusions: Evidence-based data support the use of PET with different radiopharmaceuticals in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms with specific indications for each radiopharmaceutical.

Abstract
CONTEXT Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a paraneoplastic disorder, usually caused by benign mesenchymal tumors that produce high levels of fibroblast growth factor 23. The only curative therapy is resection of the causative tumors. OBJECTIVE This research was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide (18F-OC) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in detecting TIO and its impact on patient management. METHODS Retrospective analysis was conducted of 17 patients with hypophosphatemic osteomalacia suspected to be TIO. A 18F-OC PET/CT study was performed in all 17 patients to localize the tumor and 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT was performed in 4 out of 17 patients; both studies were performed within 1 week of each other. Both studies were interpreted blindly without the knowledge of other imaging findings. The image findings were compared with the results of histopathological examinations and clinical follow-ups. RESULTS The 18F-OC PET/CT scans were positive in 14 patients. Furthermore, 4 of 14 patients were scanned with both 18F-OC and 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT. Both studies were able to localize the tumor in all 4 patients. In total, 14 patients had surgery to remove the lesions. Postsurgical pathological examination confirmed causative tumors in these patients, whose symptoms diminished promptly. Serum phosphate levels normalized, confirming the diagnosis of TIO. 18F-OC PET/CT sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 87.5%, 100%, and 88.2% respectively. 18F-OC PET/CT findings affected patient management in 88.2% of cases. CONCLUSION 18F-OC PET/CT scan is useful in the detection of tumors causing TIO. Further studies with larger patient populations are needed to validate the result.

Abstract
Purpose Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome of abnormal phosphate and vitamin D metabolism caused by typically small endocrine tumors that secrete fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). TIO is characterized clinically by progressive musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, proximal muscle weakness, and multiple fractures, leading to long-term disability. Misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis are common because of the nonspecific symptoms, and several years may elapse before patients receive an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Thus, it is vital that awareness of the appropriate recognition and management of TIO is increased among healthcare professionals who may encounter patients with suspected TIO. Methods A roundtable meeting was held on 10 January 2020 in Dallas, TX, USA, to gather perspectives on the diagnosis and treatment of TIO. The following topics were considered: clinical presentation, patient history, differential diagnosis, laboratory assessment, imaging, venous sampling, and treatment. Results This report provides a summary of our collective experiences in the management of TIO. Main conclusions Laboratory tests are mandatory to expedite TIO diagnosis and should include measurement of fasting serum phosphorus, renal phosphate reabsorption, serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, and serum FGF23 levels. Functional and anatomical imaging are essential to locate the FGF23-secreting tumor(s) causing TIO. Surgical resection is often a curative treatment when the tumor can be localized; however, better management of patients who cannot be operated on with targeted therapies is needed. Further efforts to increase awareness of TIO within the medical community, and education on recommended diagnostic and treatment pathways are required to improve the management of this debilitating disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumour-induced osteomalacia (TIO) or oncogenic osteomalacia is a rare variant of paraneoplastic syndrome secondary to a small benign phosphaturic mesenchymal tumour that secretes phosphaturic substances. Complete tumour excision is often curative. However, the localization of these offending tumours has always remained a challenge because of their small size, slow-growing nature, and presence in atypical locations. We performed a systemic review and meta-analysis on the sensitivity and specificity of F-18 FDG PET/CT and Ga-68 DOTA-SSTR PET/CT to detect tumours causing osteomalacia. METHODS Pub Med, SCOPUS, the Cochrane Library and Web of Science were searched for articles on F-18 FDG and Ga-68 DOTA-SSTR PET/CT in the detection of culprit tumours in TIO till September 2020. Both retrospective and prospective studies having three or more patients were included. The methodological quality of included studies was assessed using the Revised Tool for the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2 checklist. A random-effect model was used for the statistical pooling of sensitivity and specificity. Pooled data were presented with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) and displayed using Forest plots. Heterogeneity was expressed using the I2 statistic. RESULTS The pooled sensitivity of Ga-68 DOTA-SSTR PET/CT in detecting the culprit tumour derived from all included studies is 86% (95% CI: 79-91%). There is moderate statistical heterogeneity among the included studies (I2 = 72.7%). The pooled sensitivity of F-18 FDG PET/CT in detecting the offending tumour derived from all included studies is 73% (95% CI: 61-84%) with moderate statistical heterogeneity among the included studies (I2 = 45.4%). CONCLUSION In the detection of offending tumours in TIO, Ga-68 DOTA-SSTR PET/CT has better sensitivity than F-18 FDG PET/CT and should be used as first-line imaging modality due to very high sensitivity.

Abstract
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are rare in childhood. Neuroblastoma is the most common pediatric extracranial solid tumor, occurring >90% in children younger than 5 years of age. Pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma are rare NETs, causing hypertension in 0.5-2% of hypertensive children. Gastroenteropancreatic NETs can occur in children and are classified into carcinoids and pancreatic tumors. Nuclear medicine procedures have an essential role both in the diagnosis and treatment of NETs. Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) labeled with radioiodine has a well-established role in diagnosis as well as therapeutic management of the neuroblastoma group of diseases. During recent decades, establishing the abundant expression of somatostatin receptors by NETs first led to scintigraphy with somatostatin analogs (i.e. Tc/In-octreotide) and, later, with the emergence of positron-emitting labeled agents (i.e. Ga-DOTATATE/DOTATOC/DOTANOC) PET scans with significantly higher detection efficiency became available. Therapy with somatostatin analogs labeled with beta emitters such as Lu-177 and Y-90, known as peptide receptor radionuclide therapy, is a promising new option in the management of patients with inoperable or metastasized NETs. In this article, pediatric NETs are briefly reviewed and the role of radioactive agents in the detection and treatment of these tumors is discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Currently, the main challenge in tumour-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is the difficulty in locating culprit tumours for definitive diagnosis and surgical therapy. Herein, we retrospectively evaluate the efficiency of 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT in the localisation and diagnosis of TIO, and compared with 18F-FDG. METHODS Twenty-four consecutive patients with hypophosphataemic osteomalacia (HO) and suspicion of TIO who were referred to our centre for 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT scanning were retrospectively reviewed. The images were evaluated qualitatively as well as semi-quantitatively, and imaging results were compared with the final diagnoses. RESULTS Among the total of 21 patients who were included in the final analyses, 17 were diagnosed with TIO, while four were proven to have other causes of HO. 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT produced positive results in 16 of the 17 patients with TIO, representing a sensitivity of 94.1%. Moreover, the 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT results were negative in 3 of the 4 patients without TIO, representing a specificity of 75.0%. The overall accuracy of 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT in locating the tumours responsible for TIO is 90.5%. In particular, 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT detected the culprit tumours in 4 out of 10 patients with negative results on previous 18F-FDG PET/CT and showed a significantly higher T/M ratio of tumours than 18F-FDG PET/CT in the same patients (n = 10; 4.76 ± 3.08 vs 1.95 ± 1.33, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT is an accurate imaging modality in the localisation of tumours for TIO. It is superior to 18F-FDG PET/CT and may be useful in the differential diagnosis of HO. KEY POINTS • TIO should be considered a possible cause for patients diagnosed with HO, which usually needs to be differentiated from other aetiologies. • 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT is an accurate imaging modality in locating culprit tumours for TIO, superior to 18F-FDG PET/CT.
