Abstract

We reported 99m-Tc phytate accumulation in the pyelocalyceal system of the kidney in the lymphoscintigraphic images of a 3.5 months-old male infant with chylous ascites, which was mistaken with the site of lymph leakage. SPECT/CT localized activity in the para-aortic region to the renal pelvis and on delayed images, this was disappeared. Our case illustrates the added value of SPECT/CT for the differentiation of possible false-positive findings in lymphoscintigraphy.

一名乳糜腹水患者的肾盂系统中积聚了 99m-Tc Phytate--SPECT/CT 解决了这一隐患。

我们报告了一名 3 个半月大的患有乳糜腹水的男婴的淋巴管造影图像中肾盂萼膜系统的 99m-Tc 植酸积聚，这被误认为是淋巴漏的部位。SPECT/CT 将主动脉旁区域的活动定位到肾盂，在延迟图像上，活动消失了。我们的病例说明了 SPECT/CT 在区分淋巴管造影中可能出现的假阳性结果方面的附加价值。
