A 27-year-old man developed polymyositis as a manifestation of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after non-myeloablative peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT). Bone scintigraphy showed intense, striped, and heterogeneous accumulation of Tc-99m methylene diphosphonate (MDP) in the soft-tissue of his lower limbs, while faint activities were seen in the right upper limb. Tc-99m MDP scintigraphy was very useful for accurate and objective evaluation of the severity of the muscle injury and the extent of polymyositis caused by chronic GVHD.
一名27岁男性在非清髓性外周血干细胞移植(PBSCT)后发生了多肌炎,这是慢性移植物抗宿主病(GVHD)的一种表现。骨闪烁显像显示,他双下肢软组织中锝-99m亚甲基二膦酸盐(MDP)呈强烈、条纹状且不均匀的聚集,而右上肢仅见微弱放射性。锝-99m MDP闪烁显像对于准确、客观地评估慢性GVHD所致肌肉损伤的严重程度及多肌炎范围非常有用。
