Visualization in the ipsilateral lymph nodes secondary to extravasation of a bone-imaging agent in the left hand: a case report.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Axillary or elbow lymph node visualization after subcutaneous infiltration of the bone-imaging agent on a routine bone scintigraphy has been reported. The prostate cancer patient in this case report underwent bone scintigraphy; in 3-h bone images, the lymph nodes in the wrist, elbow, and axillary regions were simultaneously visualized. This was caused by extravasation of the intravenous injection of bone-imaging agent in the dorsal part of the patient's hand.

We report on a 59-year-old female patient with an infected vascular graft investigated with 18F FDG-PET/CT. The first of two studies showed FDG activity in the left deltoid and ipsilateral axillary lymph nodes explained by influenza vaccination the day prior.

Introduction: One of the major problems of lymphoscintigraphy is the time of patient presence in the nuclear medicine wards. The operating room schedule can be compromised if the patients stay longer than usual in the nuclear medicine departments. However, too early imaging can be falsely negative for sentinel node visualization and delayed imaging may be required. The aim of t...
