Abstract

Lung cancer is currently one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Among all metastatic sites of this cancer, cardiac metastases are exceptional, and long-term prognosis in these patients is very poor. 18F-FDG PET/CT is a valuable imaging tool for initial staging and assessment of treatment response of various neoplasms. In the case of lung cancer, its role is clearly defined, and its effectiveness is superior to other diagnostic imaging methods. We present a rare 18F-FDG PET/CT image finding in a 71-year-old man with biopsy-proven lung squamous cell carcinoma, showing increased cardiac 18F-FDG uptake subsequently found to be compatible cardiac metastasis.
氟-18氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描(18F-FDG PET/CT)诊断肺癌心脏转移
肺癌是目前世界上最常见的恶性肿瘤之一。在这种癌症的所有转移部位中,心脏转移是罕见的,这些患者的长期预后非常差。18F-FDG PET/CT是一种有价值的影像学工具,用于各种肿瘤的初始分期和治疗反应评估。在肺癌的情况下,其作用明确,其有效性优于其他诊断成像方法。我们在一例71岁男性活检证实的肺鳞状细胞癌中发现罕见的18F-FDG PET/CT图像,显示心脏18F-FDG摄取增加,随后发现相容的心脏转移。
