Abstract

We report a very rare case of ovarian gastrinoma in the context of multiple endocrine neoplasia type I, including primary hyperparathyroidism and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy revealed the ovarian involvement at an early stage. Oophorectomy led to the final diagnosis and complete healing.
