Extraosseous myocardial uptake incidentally detected during bone scan: report of three cases and a systematic literature review of extraosseous uptake.
Bone scintigraphy is widely considered as an important technique able to investigate various pathological conditions of the skeletal system. Many unexpected extraosseous uptakes have been reported in literature. We present here three cases of unexpected 99mTc-oxidronate (HDP) myocardial extraosseous uptakes in patients undergoing bone scan for staging purposes. In particular, we present the fir...
متن کاملExtraosseous Ewing’s Sarcoma of the Parapharyngeal Space -A Rare Entity - with Review of Literature
Introduction: Extraosseous Ewing’s sarcoma (EES) of the head and neck region is a rare occurrence, and Ewing’s sarcoma of the parapharyngeal space is even rarer. To the best of our knowledge, only three cases of EES of the parapharyngeal space have been reported in the literature. Case Report: We report a rare case of EES of the parapharyngeal space in an 8-year-old girl. She presented with c...
متن کاملSPECT-CT for characterization of extraosseous uptake of 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate on bone scintigraphy.
Bone scintigraphy is a sensitive and popular method for imaging a wide array of benign or malignant skeletal abnormalities. However, the uptake of tracers used for bone scintigraphy may be observed in various extraosseous sites, thereby limiting its specificity. It is difficult to correctly localize such sites of uptake on planar bone scintigraphy alone. The addition of hybrid single-photon emi...
متن کاملAdult Primary Spinal Epidural Extraosseous Ewing's Sarcoma: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Background. Extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma in the spinal epidural space is a rare malignancy, especially in adults. Case Presentation. A 40-year-old male presented with back pain and urinary hesitancy. MRI revealed a thoracic extradural mass with no osseous involvement. He underwent surgery for gross total resection of the mass, which was diagnosed as Ewing's sarcoma. He was subsequently treated ...
متن کاملPrimary extraosseous plasmacytoma of the parotid gland: A case report and literature review
Extraosseous plasmacytoma (EOP) is an uncommon malignant tumour that is characterised by the monoclonal proliferation of abnormal plasma cells in soft tissue; however, EOP lacks the defining features of multiple myeloma or medullary plasmacytoma. Although the majority of EOP lesions occur in the head and neck, EOP of the parotid gland is extremely uncommon. The present study aimed to explore th...
