Abstract

Abstract: Extragastrointestinal stromal tumor (EGIST) in the posterior mediastinum is very rare. Herein, we report FDG PET/CT findings of posterior mediastinum EGIST in a 77-year-old man. On FDG PET/CT, it manifested as a solitary posterior mediastinum mass with heterogeneous necrosis and intense FDG uptake. The final pathology supported a diagnosis of EGIST. This case hints us when we encounter a soft tissue mass with intense FDG uptake in the posterior mediastinum; EGIST should be regarded as a differential diagnosis.

后纵隔胃肠道间质瘤的 FDG PET/CT 图像。

摘要：后纵隔胃肠道外间质瘤（EGIST）非常罕见。在此，我们报告了一名 77 岁男性后纵隔 EGIST 的 FDG PET/CT 结果。在 FDG PET/CT 上，它表现为单发的后纵隔肿块，伴有异质性坏死和强烈的 FDG 摄取。最终病理结果支持 EGIST 的诊断。该病例提示我们，当我们在后纵隔遇到具有强 FDG 摄取的软组织肿块时，应将 EGIST 作为一个鉴别诊断。
