Lytic Bone Metastasis in a Case with Primary Breast Lymphoma
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bone metastasis alone without involvement of bone marrow is rarely seen in primary breast lymphoma (PBL). It has a poor prognosis. A 64-years old woman was diagnosed as high-grade PBL T type. The patient received 6 sessions of chemotherapy with a diagnosis of stage IIAE PBL. The patient achieved remission and was followed for 12 years. She underwent surgery due to fracture at lower half of right femur. Palliative radiotherapy (30 Gy) was given to right femur. Here, we presented a patient with high-grade PBL T type developed lytic bone metastasis without bone marrow involvement.

Influence of the Different Primary Cancers and Different Types of Bone Metastasis on the Lesion-based Artificial Neural Network Value Calculated by a Computer-aided Diagnostic System,BONENAVI, on Bone Scintigraphy Images
Objective(s): BONENAVI, a computer-aided diagnostic system, is used in bone scintigraphy. This system provides the artificial neural network (ANN) and bone scan index (BSI) values. ANN is associated with the possibility of bone metastasis, while BSI is related to the amount of bone metastasis. The degree of uptake on bone scintigraphy can be affected by the type of bone metastasis. Therefore, t...
