A 31-year-old man with bacterial endocarditis developed a mycotic popliteal aneurysm which presented clinically like an acute osteomyelitis. Bone and Ga-67 scanning played a major role in disclosing this unsuspected lesion. Various isotopic techniques proposed for the detection of mycotic aneurysm are reviewed. The potential usefulness of Ga-67 imaging in patients at risk of developing such lesions is discussed.
一名患有细菌性心内膜炎的31岁男子出现了霉菌性腘动脉瘤,临床上表现类似急性骨髓炎。骨扫描和镓-67扫描在发现这一意外病变中起了主要作用。本文回顾了为检测霉菌性动脉瘤而提出的各种同位素技术。讨论了镓-67成像在有发生此类病变风险的患者中的潜在应用价值。
