Abstract

A 72-year-old woman was referred for whole-body 111In-pentetreotide scintigraphy with SPECT/CT. There was increased uptake of lymphadenopathy in the left axilla and left deltoid muscle. The patient's history revealed that the patient received the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine 3 days before the 111In-pentetreotide scintigraphy with SPECT/CT. This case demonstrates that the COVID-19 vaccine can cause 111In-pentetreotide uptake in the lymph nodes and the deltoid muscle.
