Introduction: Distant metastases of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) may lack the ability to concentrate radioiodine. In such cases, positive somatostatin receptor scintigraphy might be useful in demonstrating the expression of somatostatin receptors that are potential therapeutic targets. To date, only a few cerebellar metastases from PTC have been reported in the literature. Patient findings: We present an 82-year-old female, in whom an asymptomatic cerebellar metastasis from PTC was diagnosed by means of Tc-99m-EDDA/HYNIC-TOC scintigraphy four years after the initial diagnosis. She was previously treated with total thyroidectomy and regional lymph node dissection, followed by three cycles of radioiodine therapy. Despite persistently ele...
