Non-functional urinary bladder paraganglioma with negative Ga-DOTA-NOC PET/CT uptake
Abstract Background Paraganglioma of the urinary bladder is a very rare benign tumor that constitutes less than 0.5% of all bladder tumors. It can be functional and non-functional. Functional tumors present with symptoms of catecholamine excess, and non-functional tumors usually remain asymptomatic....
