Abstract

Positron emission tomography using fluorodeoxyglucose is a well known diagnostic tool for routine assessment of the patients with carcinoma. Fluorodeoxyglucose uptake, as a marker of glucose metabolism, is increased in malignant conditions as well as infectious and inflammatory processes. In this case report, findings of postoperative changes in the graft on FDG PET/CT were presented in a patient on follow-up for operated renal cell carcinoma and aortic aneurysm graft surgery. The importance of the FDG uptake pattern has been pointed out for differential diagnosis of infectious and non-infectious conditions. (MIRT 2012;21:110-113)

Özet

Florodeoksiglukoz kullanılarak yapılan positron emisyon tomografisi, kanser hastalarının rutin değerlendirilmesinde iyi bilinen bir tanısal yöntemdir. Florodeoksiglukoz tutulumu, glukoz metabolizması göstergesi olarak malign durumlarda olduğu gibi infeksiyöz ve inflamatuar proseslerde de artar. Bu olgu sunumunda aort anevrizmasına bağlı greft operasyonu geçirmiş ve renal hücreli karsinom nedeni ile takipte olan bir hastada greft bölgesinde postoperatif değişiklikler ile uyumlu PET/BT bulguları takdim edilmiştir. PET/BT’deki tutulum paterninin infeksiyoz ve non-infeksiyoz durumların ayırıcı tanısındaki önemi işaret edilmiştir. (MIRT 2012;21:110-113)
