Abstract

Mesenteric panniculitis is a rare benign inflammatory process involving mesenteric adipose tissue and the pathogenesis is still unknown. It may present 18Fluorine-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) uptake and appear like a malign tumor or metastatic disease. We report a case of 47 year-old woman with serous ovarian adenocarcinoma demonstrating intense 18F-FDG uptake and hyperdense nodularity in mesenteric fatty tissue on post- chemotherapy positron emission tomography/computed tomography imaging. The serum tumor marker (CA-125) level was within the normal range. A correlative magnetic resonance imaging highlighted the diagnosis of mesenteric panniculitis that was also confirmed by clinical follow-up.

Özet

Mezenterik pannikülit mezenterik yağlı dokunun nadir görülen ve benign karakterli enflamatuvar hastalığı olup patogenezi halen tam olarak bilinmemektedir. 18Flor-florodeoksiglukoz (18F-FDG) tutulumu gösterip, malignite veya metastatik hastalık gibi görünebilir. Seröz tipte over adenokarsinom tanısı bulunan 47 yaşında kadın hastanın kemoterapi sonrası pozitron emisyon tomografisi/bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntülemesinde mezenterik yağlı dokuda hiperdens nodüler görünüm ve 18F-FDG tutulumu saptandı. Serum tümör marker (CA-125) normal düzeyde bulunan olguda, sonrasında yapılan manyetik rezonans görüntülemesinde mezenterik pannikülit tanısı takipte ve klinik olarak da doğrulandı.
