===== Case reports =====
A 65-year-old man with a neuroendocrine tumor of the ileum presenting with cervical pain who underwent a [[68Ga-DOTATATE PET]]/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan that incidentally underlines the presence of [[hemangioblastoma]] of the [[cervical spinal cord]]. The patient does not have a family history of [[Von Hippel-Lindau Disease]] nor does he suffer from [[polycythemia]] and he is currently waiting for genetic testing. Despite being rare, hemangioblastomas could be possible findings of central nervous system [[incidentaloma]] at 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT scan, especially in patients with anamnesis with possible related condition
