A 67-year-old woman complained of continuous low back pain for 4 months. She was referred for a 99mTc-MIBI parathyroid scintigraphy with neck SPECT/CT imaging. The planar images showed no abnormal uptake. However, on the SPECT/CT scan, a soft tissue nodule with high uptake was noted adjacent to the left submandibular gland, mimicking normal submandibular gland uptake. Pathological examination from surgical specimen showed that it was an ectopic parathyroid adenoma.
一位 67 岁女性因持续的腰背疼痛就诊,病史为 4 个月。她被转诊进行 99mTc-MIBI 甲状旁腺闪烁显像检查,并进行颈部 SPECT/CT 成像。平面图像未见异常摄取。然而,在 SPECT/CT 扫描中,发现左颌下腺旁有一个软组织结节摄取增高,类似于正常颌下腺摄取。手术标本的病理检查显示为甲状旁腺腺瘤。
