We present a female in her sixties with mixed connective tissue disease who underwent Tc-human serum albumin diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Tc-HSA-DTPA) scintigraphy to clarify the cause of generalized edema. Scintigraphy findings directed the diagnosis to protein-losing gastroenteropathy. Various disorders are known to be associated with protein-losing gastroenteropathy; however, mixed connective tissue disease is a rare cause. Tc-HSA-DTPA scintigraphy is helpful in the diagnosis and following the response to therapy of protein-losing gastroenteropathy.
我们报告了一位60多岁患有混合性结缔组织病的女性,她接受了锝标记人血清白蛋白二乙三胺五乙酸(Tc-HSA-DTPA)闪烁扫描以明确全身性水肿的病因。闪烁扫描结果将诊断指向蛋白丢失性胃肠病。已知多种疾病与蛋白丢失性胃肠病相关;然而,混合性结缔组织病是一种罕见的病因。Tc-HSA-DTPA闪烁扫描有助于蛋白丢失性胃肠病的诊断及对治疗反应的跟踪。
