Abstract

A 45-year-old man had right chest and back pain for 15+ days without any cause, each lasting 3-10 minutes, and sometimes it could radiate to the right shoulder. Chest computed tomography (CT) scan showed bony destruction in the dorsal segment of the 4^th rib on the right. Metastatic disease was suspected and for this reason, fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (¹⁸F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT was performed. The images demonstrated increased ¹⁸F-FDG activity in the dorsal segment of the 4^th rib on the right with osteolytic bony destruction. Postsurgical pathological examination showed aneosinophilic abscess (EA).

18F-FDG PET/CT示肋骨嗜酸性脓肿:模拟骨肿瘤。

男，45岁，无故右胸、腰痛15天以上，每次3-10分钟，有时可向右肩放射。胸部计算机断层扫描(CT)显示右侧第四肋骨背段骨破坏。怀疑有转移性疾病，因此进行了氟-18-氟脱氧葡萄糖(18F-FDG)正电子发射断层扫描(PET)/CT。图像显示右侧第4肋背段18F-FDG活性增加，伴有骨溶解性骨破坏。术后病理检查示嗜酸性脓肿(EA)。
