A 17-year-old male patient was admitted into our hospital with granulomatous eruption (primarily on the lower extremities), diarrhea, fever, and weight loss for 6 months. F-FDG PET/CT scan was performed to rule out the possibility of malignant metastasis or paraneoplastic syndromes. F-FDG PET/CT scan showed multiple bone and skin lesions with significantly intense FDG uptakes and lymph nodes with moderate FDG uptake. A biopsy of the skin lesions was performed, and the tissue was sent for a broad-range polymerase chain reaction amplification, which showed that the pathogenic organism was Mycobacterium avium complex.
一位 17 岁男性患者因肉芽肿性皮疹（主要累及下肢）、腹泻、发热和体重减轻 6 个月而入院。为排除恶性转移或副肿瘤综合征的可能性，进行了 F-FDG PET/CT 扫描。F-FDG PET/CT 扫描显示多发性骨和皮肤病变，FDG 摄取明显增强，以及淋巴结中度 FDG 摄取。进行了皮肤病变活检，将组织送检进行广谱聚合酶链反应扩增，结果显示病原体为鸟分枝杆菌复合群。
