Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) is a therapeutic option in inoperable or metastatic neuroendocrine tumours (NETs). PRRT proved to be promising in prolonging survival and delaying disease progression in patients with advanced bronchopulmonary carcinoid. However, it may lead to worsening of carcinoid symptoms or even precipitate carcinoid crises. The incidence of PRRT induced carcinoid crisis would be between 1-10%. This usually takes place during the first PRRT cycle, either during the tracer infusion or 12-48 hours' post-administration. We report a 62-year-old man with underlying metastatic lung carcinoid tumour who developed carcinoid crisis at 10 hours after receiving PRRT. The carcinoid crisis was successfully treated with intravenous octreotide infusion, corticosteroid, a selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, parenteral ranitidine and chlorpheniramine for H1 and H2 antagonism respectively.
