Abstract

We present a case of a 22-year-old male patient who underwent a bone scan for evaluation of left condylar hyperplasia. Incidentally, the bone scan revealed bilateral thighs muscular uptake of technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate, which initially raised concerns for an underlying pathological process. However, further investigation revealed that the abnormal uptake was due to postexercise effects. This case report highlights the importance of considering benign causes of abnormal radiotracer uptake and the need for careful correlation with clinical history to avoid unnecessary diagnostic interventions.

一名左侧髁状突增生患者在骨扫描中偶然发现双侧大腿肌肉摄取锝-99m MDP。
我们报告了一例 22 岁男性患者的病例,他因左侧髁状突增生接受了骨扫描评估。意外的是,骨扫描发现双侧大腿肌肉摄取了亚甲基二磷酸锝-99m,这最初引起了对潜在病理过程的担忧。然而,进一步检查发现,异常摄取是由于运动后的影响。本病例报告强调了考虑放射性示踪剂摄取异常的良性原因的重要性,以及仔细对照临床病史以避免不必要的诊断干预的必要性。
