Neuroendocrine tumor (NET) metastases to the heart are found in 1%–4% of NET patients and have been reported primarily in the form of individual cases. We investigated the prevalence, clinical characteristics, imaging features, and outcomes of NET patients with cardiac metastases on ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT. Methods: ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT of 490 consecutive patients from a single institution were retrospectively reviewed for sites of metastases. The cumulative cardiovascular event rate and overall survival of patients with cardiac NET metastases (CNMs) were compared with those of a control group of metastatic NET patients without cardiac metastases. In patients with CNMs, the cardiac SUV_max with and without normalization to the myocardial background uptake was compared with a separate cohort of 11 patients with active cardiac sarcoidosis who underwent ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT for research purposes. Results: In total, 270 patients with metastatic NETs were identified, 9 (3.3%) of whom had CNMs. All 9 patients had grade 1–2 gastroenteropancreatic NETs, most commonly from the small intestine (7 patients). The control group consisted of 140 patients with metastatic grade 1–2 gastroenteropancreatic NETs. On Kaplan–Meier analysis, there was no significant difference in the risk of cardiovascular adverse events (P = 0.91 on log-rank test) or mortality (P = 0.83) between the metastatic NET patients with and without cardiac metastases. The degree of cardiac DOTATATE uptake was significantly higher in CNMs than in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis without overlap, in terms of both cardiac SUV_max (P = 0.027) and SUV_max–to–myocardial background ratio (P = 0.021). Conclusion: Routine ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT can be used to identify CNMs in 3% of patients with metastatic NETs. CNMs do not confer added cardiovascular or mortality risk. A distinguishing feature of CNMs is their high degree of DOTATATE uptake compared with focal myocardial inflammation.

Alveolar capillary dysplasia (ACD) is a fatal disorder that typically presents in the neonatal period with refractory hypoxemia and pulmonary hypertension. Lung biopsy is traditionally required to establish the diagnosis. We report a 22-mo-old male who presented with anemia, severe pulmonary hypertension, and right heart failure. He had a complicated hospital course resulting in cardiac arrest and requirement for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Computed tomography of the chest showed a heterogenous pattern of interlobular septal thickening and pulmonary edema. The etiology of his condition was unknown, lung biopsy was contraindicated because of his medical fragility, and discussions were held to move to palliative care. Rapid whole-genome sequencing (rWGS) was performed. In 2 d it resulted, revealing a novel FOXF1 gene pathogenic variant that led to the presumptive diagnosis of atypical ACD. Cases of atypical ACD have been reported with survival in patients using medical therapy or lung transplantation. Based on the rWGS diagnosis and more favorable potential of atypical ACD, aggressive medical treatment was pursued. The patient was discharged home after 67 d in the hospital; he is currently doing well more than 30 mo after his initial presentation with only one subsequent hospitalization and no requirement for lung transplantation. Our case reveals the potential for use of rWGS in a critically ill child in which the diagnosis is unknown. rWGS and other advanced genetic tests can guide clinical management and expand our understanding of atypical ACD and other conditions.

We still don’t know what COVID-19 is doing to the heart or how we should be investigating it and treating it. Last month JAMA Cardiology published a German cohort study of 100 patients recently recovered from COVID-19… A number of striking problems with the study were noted on Twitter…...
