We report CT, MR, and fluorodeoxyglucose-positron-emission tomography (FDG-PET) imaging findings of a case of cellular neurothekeoma of the tongue, a rare benign soft-tissue tumor with neural differentiation, occurring in a 15-year-old girl. CT and MR imaging showed a well-defined, well-enhancing submucosal soft-tissue mass in the midline dorsal tongue. There was high FDG uptake on PET scans. Although imaging findings are rather nonspecific, neurothekeoma may be one of diagnostic inclusions of soft-tissue masses of the tongue in a young female patient.
我们报告了一例舌部细胞性神经鞘黏液瘤的CT、MR及氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描(FDG-PET)影像学表现,该肿瘤为一种罕见的具有神经分化的良性软组织肿瘤,发生于一名15岁女孩。CT和MR成像显示舌背中线处有一个边界清晰、强化良好的黏膜下软组织肿块。PET扫描显示FDG摄取增高。尽管影像学表现相当不具特异性,但神经鞘黏液瘤可能是年轻女性患者舌部软组织肿块诊断时需考虑的病变之一。
