In the article “Ectopic ACTH-Dependent Cushing’s Syndrome Emerging at a Late Stage of a Mixed Histology Neuroendocrine Neoplasm: A Case Report” [Case Rep Oncol. 2024;17:1146–1156; https://doi.org/10.1159/000540707] by Meyers et al., the Figures 1 and 2 are interchanged. The correct figures and legends are as follows:
68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT and clinic of the patient. a Negative 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT scan in July 2022, 1 year before hospital admission, with the patient not showing any signs of Cushing syndrome. b In August 2023, upon hospital admission, there was a reappearance of low to moderate SSTR expression at the lymphatic, pulmonary, peritoneal, and osseous levels (arrow), suggesting the presence of a differentiated neuroendocrine component. At this moment, the patient exhibited all the signs of Cushing syndrome.

Thoraco-abdominal CT. In the thoracic region, we did not find a pulmonary embolism. There was a clear progression of pulmonary metastases. a There was an almost complete involvement of the right lower lobe and the left upper lobe (arrow). b Minor pleural effusions appeared (arrow). In the abdominal region, a known left renal metastasis and retroperitoneal lymph nodes were progressing. c There was also progression in previously identified hepatic metastases (arrow). d Progression was observed in retroperitoneal para-aortic adenopathy and in the left renal metastasis (arrow), invading the local retroperitoneal fat.
