Trabecular carcinomas of the skin, or Merkel cell tumors, are aggressive neoplasms that tend to occur in sun-exposed skin. These tumors frequently metastasize and, despite therapy, the number of disease-related deaths is high. Ultrastructurally and immunocytochemically, the majority of these tumors have neuroendocrine characteristics. Recently, we described the in vivo visualization of various neuroendocrine tumors after injection of a radiolabeled somatostatin analogue (octreotide). In this study, we report the results of scintigraphy with radioactive-labeled somatostatin analogues in five patients with Merkel cell tumors.
