We share our experience with serial PET/CT imaging on a patient with extranodal Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) with hepatopancreatic involvement. RDD is a benign proliferative disorder of histiocytes mainly involving the lymph nodes. It typically presents with fever and painless cervical lymphadenopathy in young adults and less than half of RDS cases demonstrate extranodal involvement. RDD involvement of the liver and pancreas is extremely rare, and this case highlights the role of PET/CT in its management.
我们分享了对一名患有结外Rosai-Dorfman病(RDD)且累及肝胰腺的患者进行系列PET/CT成像的经验。RDD是一种主要累及淋巴结的组织细胞良性增殖性疾病。它通常在年轻人中表现为发热和无痛性颈部淋巴结病,不到一半的RDD病例有结外受累表现。RDD累及肝脏和胰腺极为罕见,该病例突出了PET/CT在其治疗中的作用。
