摘要
我们报告了一例因前列腺癌生化复发(前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)1.2 纳克/毫升)而进行[18F]F-胆碱正电子发射计算机断层扫描(PET-CT)的患者。在肝脏内观察到两个大面积的灶性摄取区和一个冷核。PET 扫描后进行的对比增强超声波扫描将这些病变定性为海绵状肝血管瘤,因此没有进行活组织检查;3 年的随访以及 PET 和磁共振成像结果的稳定性证实了这些病变的良性性质。
Cavernous Hepatic Hemangioma at 18F-Choline Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography: Be Aware of the Pitfall.
We report a case of a patient performing a positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) scan with [18F]F-Choline for biochemical relapse (Prostate specific antigen (PSA) 1.2 ng/ml) of prostate cancer. Two large areas of focal uptake with a cold core within the liver were observed. A contrast-enhanced ultrasound scan performed after the PET scan characterized these lesions as cavernous hepatic hemangiomas, and therefore, a biopsy was not performed; 3 years of follow-up and PET and MRI finding stability confirmed the benignity of their nature.
