A 42-year-old woman with a large pancreatic tumor had undergone F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) imaging. Moderate metabolic activity was detected on the head of the pancreas. The tumor was resected and it was histopathologically diagnosed as malign pancreatic hemangiopericytoma (HPC). HPC is a rare soft tissue sarcoma. The tumor is considered aggressive with high rates of local recurrence and metastasis regardless the localization. Herein, we present the imaging characteristics of HPC with F-FDG PET/CT.
一名患有巨大胰腺肿瘤的42岁女性接受了F-氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描(FDG PET/CT)成像。在胰头检测到中度代谢活性。肿瘤被切除,组织病理学诊断为恶性胰腺血管外皮细胞瘤(HPC)。HPC是一种罕见的软组织肉瘤。无论肿瘤位于何处,都被认为具有侵袭性,局部复发和转移率很高。在此,我们展示了HPC在F-FDG PET/CT上的影像学特征。
