Asymmetrically increased uptake in upper extremities on (99m)Tc-MDP bone scintigraphy caused by intra-arterial injection: different uptake patterns in three cases.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Unexpected findings on bone scintigraphy such as asymmetrical uptake in extremities may cause confusion for the diagnosis. The authors describe three cases of accidental intraarterial injection of Tc-(99m) methylene diphosphonate ((99m)Tc-MDP) on the antecubital region and discuss the findings and differential diagnosis.

متن کاملIncidental thyroid uptake during 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate bone scintigraphy in oncologic patients
Introduction: Extraosseous accumulation of 99mTc – methylene diphosphonate (MDP) may be due to neoplastic, dystrophic, hormonal, inflammatory, ischemic, traumatic or excretory disorders. 99mTc-MDP incidental thyroid uptake is not frequent and is possibly caused by the presence of dystrophic or metastatic calcification, biopsy procedure and presence of beni...
متن کاملExtra osseous uptake of 99mTc-MDP in psoas muscle on bone scintigraphy: Importance of SPECT/CT imaging
Incidental extra-osseous uptake of 99mTc-MDP on bone scintigraphy has been frequently reported in the literature; however, calcification of the psoas muscle is a rare condition, which has been reported on magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) imagings. Here we report a 67-year-old woman with acute paraplegia and low back pain who was referred for a 99mTc-MDP...
متن کاملMyocardial 99mTc-MDP uptake on the bone scintigraphy in the hemodialysis-associated amyloidosis: A case report [Persian]
Amyloidosis is characterized by an abnormal extracellular deposition of amyloid in different organs, where it usually causes some type of dysfunction. Its cause is unknown. Five different types of amyloidosis have been described according to the underlying disease; immunoglobulin amyloidosis, familial amyloidosis, senile systemic amyloidosis, secondary amyloidosis and hemodialysis-associa...
متن کاملGiant enostosis of spine with increased uptake on planar and SPECT views of bone scan
An enostosis or bone island is a benign bony lesion that is almost diagnosed based on clinical and radiologic defining characteristics. One of the known diagnostic procedures in the evaluation of enostosis is bone scintigraphy. Generally, we don’t expect to see increased uptake by enostosis in the bone scan. Herein we present a 52-year-old lady who was suffering from chronic low back pain that ...
