Abstract

A 27-year-old white man was diagnosed with a testicular, metastatic germ cell tumor. The patient was evaluated with F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and coregistered computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) as well as a contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) of the abdomen and pelvis. Serologic tests were performed. At laparoscopic appendectomy, findings were consistent with acute suppurative appendicitis. This case exemplifies the relevance of incidental findings detected on FDG PET/CT.

摘要

一名27岁的白人男性被诊断患有睾丸转移性生殖细胞肿瘤。对该患者进行了F-18氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描及同机计算机断层扫描（FDG PET/CT）以及腹部和盆腔的增强CT（CECT）检查。进行了血清学检测。在腹腔镜阑尾切除术中，发现符合急性化脓性阑尾炎。该病例体现了FDG PET/CT检查中偶然发现的相关性。
