Urachal adenocarcinomas are rare cancers of the urinary bladder. Both CT and MRI are useful imaging modalities for the diagnosis and evaluation of urachal adenocarcinoma. Unlike CT or MR, there have been variable FDG PET findings with urachal tumours potentially due to considerable variation in their hypermetabolism. We present the case of a 24 year-old female patient who was diagnosed with urachal mucinous adenocarcinoma with characteristic features on CT and MRI which also exhibit moderately increased FDG avidity.
脐尿管腺癌是膀胱的罕见癌症。CT和MRI都是用于诊断和评估脐尿管腺癌的有用成像方式。与CT或MR不同,脐尿管肿瘤的FDG PET表现存在差异,这可能是由于它们的高代谢存在相当大的差异。我们报告一例24岁女性患者,其被诊断为脐尿管黏液腺癌,CT和MRI上有特征性表现,FDG摄取也呈中度增加。
