A 27-year-old male with uncontrolled hypertension. [99mTc]Tc-HYNIC-TOC MIP image (A) demonstrates an area of abnormally increased radiotracer uptake in the left retroperitoneal region. SPECT/CT fused image (B) reveals a left retroperitoneal mass with a maximum diameter of 5.3 cm. The mass shows uptake of [99mTc]Tc-HYNIC-TOC, with a KS of 3 and a TBR of 3.00. The patient underwent surgery and was diagnosed with paraganglioma.
