چکیده

症例は70歳代男性,B型肝炎ウイルスのキャリアであることを指摘されていたが医療機関への定期受診はされていなかった.発熱と倦怠感を主訴に前医を受診し,肝細胞癌と診断された.CTでは明らかな骨転移は指摘されなかったが,追加検査のFDG-PETでは骨皮質の破壊を伴わないものの骨髄内への集積増加を認めた.引き続き施行した骨髄生検では肝細胞癌の骨髄転移を認め,cStageIVBと診断した.レンバチニブによる治療を約9カ月間行ったが,口内炎や下痢,倦怠感の増悪により投与困難となり,治療開始10カ月目に死亡退院となった.PIVKA-II高値の症例では,CTで肝外転移が指摘されなくてもFDG-PETを追加施行する意義がある.

organizing hematoma of the maxillary sinus mimicking malignancy diagnosed by fluorodeoxyglucose positron-emission tomography (fdg pet/ct): a case report

in this report, we have presented 18fdg-pet findings of organized hematoma of the maxillary sinus (ohms) that showed an increased fdg uptake in the peripheral rim of the mass with central photopenia. to our knowledge, this is the first case report in the literature reporting fdg-pet/ct findings of ohms. careful interpretation of metabolic (fdg-pet/ct) and anatomic (ct and mri) images should be ...

A case of lung cancer associated with pneumoconiosis diagnosed by fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography.

We report a case of lung cancer arising from progressive massive fibrosis (PMF) associated with pneumoconiosis. In this case, fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) was able to clearly distinguish the lung cancer from PMF, suggesting a potential usefulness of FDG-PET in cancer screening in patients with pneumoconiosis. To our knowledge, this is the first descripti...

F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography

Objective—Adiponectin and resistin are adipokines that are linked to obesity, inflammation, and atherosclerosis. F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography is a promising imaging technique that can be used to evaluate vascular inflammation. Methods and Results—We measured adiponectin and resistin levels, as well as traditional cardiovascular risk factors, in 60 obese subjects and 6...

Early finding of chest wall metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma in a woman by fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography scan: a case report

INTRODUCTION The use of fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography to evaluate well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinomas is facing critical problems. It is reported that the activity of fluorodeoxyglucose-6-phosphatase, which converts fluorodeoxyglucose-6-phosphatase to fluorodeoxyglucose, is high in normal liver cells. However, the enzyme-converting activity of glucose-6-phosphatase o...

Sarcoid reaction associated with Merkel cell carcinoma revealed by fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography: a case report

Introduction: Although the association between cancer and sarcoidosis or sarcoid reaction is known, sarcoid reaction associated with Merkel cell carcinoma is rare. Case presentation: We report the case of a 57-year-old Japanese woman with Merkel cell carcinoma in the inguinal area associated with sarcoid reaction. Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography demonstrated elevated fluorodeoxy...
