We reported 99m-Tc phytate accumulation in the pyelocalyceal system of the kidney in the lymphoscintigraphic images of a 3.5 months-old male infant with chylous ascites, which was mistaken with the site of lymph leakage. SPECT/CT localized activity in the para-aortic region to the renal pelvis and on delayed images, this was disappeared. Our case illustrates the added value of SPECT/CT for the differentiation of possible false-positive findings in lymphoscintigraphy.
我们报道了一例 3.5 个月大的男性乳糜性腹水婴儿的淋巴闪烁显像中，99m-Tc 植酸钠在肾盂肾盏系统中的蓄积，该蓄积被误诊为淋巴漏部位。SPECT/CT 定位在肾旁区到肾盂的活性，延迟图像上，该活性消失。我们的病例说明了 SPECT/CT 对于区分淋巴闪烁显像中可能的假阳性发现的附加价值。
