Abstract
ABSTRACT Extravasation of the radiopharmaceutical during peptide receptor radionuclide therapy infusion is an unwanted infrequently reported event. We present the case of a 74-year old woman with a neuroendocrine tumor who was referred for peptide receptor radionuclide therapy. During intravenous infusion of 7.4 GBq [ 177 Lu]Lu-HA-DOTATATE in the upper right arm, extravasation of the radiopharmaceutical occurred through a displaced intravenous catheter. Planar scintigraphy showed pooling of radioactivity in the right upper arm. After 24 hours, the swelling in the arm was decreased; however, erythema was increased. One week later, symptoms had disappeared, and the patient did not experience any complications during follow-up of 11 months.

Abstract
Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) using Lutetium-177 (177Lu) based radiopharmaceuticals has emerged as a therapeutic area in the field of nuclear medicine and oncology, allowing for personalized medicine. Since the first market authorization in 2018 of [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-DOTATATE (Lutathera®) targeting somatostatin receptor type 2 in the treatment of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, intensive research has led to transfer innovative 177Lu containing pharmaceuticals to the clinic. Recently, a second market authorization in the field was obtained for [¹⁷⁷Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 (Pluvicto®) in the treatment of prostate cancer. The efficacy of 177Lu radiopharmaceuticals are now quite well-reported and data on the safety and management of patients are needed. This review will focus on several clinically tested and reported tailored approaches to enhance the risk-benefit trade-off of radioligand therapy. The aim is to help clinicians and nuclear medicine staff set up safe and optimized procedures using the approved 177Lu based radiopharmaceuticals.
