Rare cancers present significant challenges in diagnosis, treatment, and research, accounting for up to 25% of global cancer cases. Due to their rarity and atypical presentations, they are often misdiagnosed, resulting in late-stage detection and poor outcomes. Here, we describe a patient case with advanced metastatic nasopharynx NUT carcinoma, one of the rarest and most aggressive cancers.

Pheochromocytomas are neuroendocrine tumors that derive from sympathetic adrenomedullary chromaffin tissue and produce catecholamines. Due to the excess release of catecholamines, they can produce arterial hypertension, tachycardia, sweating, headache and a large number of other clinical manifestations secondary to the stimulation of α and β adrenoreceptors. Screening for pheochromocytoma is recommended in patients with paroxysmal, resistant or early-onset arterial hypertension, in cases with symptoms suggestive of catecholamine hypersecretion, patients with hereditary syndromes associated with pheochromocytomas, diabetes mellitus of atypical presentation and in adrenal incidentalomas with radiological characteristics not typical of adenoma (with > 10 Hounsfield Units on non-contrast CT).

Pityriasis rosea (PR) is a self-limited exanthem associated with the endogenous systemic reactivation of human herpesvirus (HHV)-6 and HHV-7. The disease typically begins with a single erythematous patch on the trunk (herald patch), followed by a secondary eruption of smaller papulosquamous lesions. Rarely, the herald patch may be the only cutaneous manifestation of PR.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is a high-prevalence disease usually characterized by metastatic spread to the pelvic lymph nodes and bones and the development of visceral metastases only in the late stages of disease. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) plays a key role in the detection of PCa metastases. Several PET radiotracers are used in PCa patients according to the stage and pathological features of the disease, in particular Ga/F-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) ligands.
