Although medulloblastoma constitutes the second most common malignant brain tumor in children, it encountered very rarely in adults. The incidence of adult medulloblastoma is approximately 0.6 to 1 case per million. It accounts for less than 1% of adult brain tumors and is located most commonly at the posterior cranial fossa. We present an extremely rare case of a 67-year-old man with cerebellar medulloblastoma with residual disease after surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, depicted with Tc-HYNIC-[D-Phe, Tyr-Octreotide] SPECT/CT. Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy was performed for staging and for the possibility of treatment with somatostatin analogs or peptide radionuclide therapy.
