Abstract

Endometrial cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors of the women, and if it can be detected in the earlier stages, the curability and the prognosis of the endometrial cancers can be better. A 52 year-old female patient, as part of ongoing research project in our clinic on endometrial carcinoma, was referred to our clinic with a suspicion of endometrial carcinoma with increased serum CA-125 measurement. Increased F-18 FDG uptake in uterine cavity that was secondary to the diagnostic curettage was demonstrated on F 18 FDG PET images. This uptake might be secondary to benign inflammatory changes or hemorrhage arising from diagnostic curettage that patient underwent ten days ago. According to our knowledge, this is the first case demonstrating increased F-18 FDG uptake secondary to diagnostic curettage.

Özet

Endometrium kanseri kadınlarda en çok görülen malign tümörlerden birisidir. Erken teşhis edildiğinde tam tedavi şansı yüksektir ve prognozu çok iyi seyirlidir. Bölümümüzde endometrium kanseri ile ilgili olarak devam eden bir proje kapsamında, serum CA-125 yüksekliği ile endometrium kanseri şüphesi olan 53 yaşında kadın hasta bölümümüze refere edildi. PET görüntülerinde uterusda artmış F-18 FDG tutulumu izlenmiştir. Bu bulgunun hastanın öyküsünde 10 gün önce geçirilmiş diagnostik küretaja bağlı benign inflamatuar değişiklikler veya hemoraji ile ilgili olduğu düşünülmüştür. Bu olgu sunumunda diagnostik küretaja sekonder olduğu düşünülen F-18 FDG tutulumu muhtemelen literatürde ilk kez gösterilmektedir.
