A 56-year-old female patient who had involuntary weight loss underwent F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for detection of malignancy. The scan revealed non-metabolic soft tissue density in the posterior wall of the stomach requiring endoscopy. Endoscopical examination was performed 9 days after PET/CT and cascade stomach was detected. Cascade stomach is a rare entity that can be diagnosed by radiographic barium evaluations and endoscopy, the appearance on CT is largely incidental and CT has rarely been relied on for the diagnosis. We present this incidental case of cascade stomach on PET/CT to be familiar with the appearance.
一名56岁体重非自主性减轻的女性患者接受了F-氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描(PET/CT)以检测恶性肿瘤。扫描显示胃后壁有非代谢性软组织密度,需要进行内镜检查。在PET/CT检查9天后进行了内镜检查,发现了叠胃。叠胃是一种罕见的情况,可通过放射学钡剂评估和内镜检查来诊断,其在CT上的表现大多是偶然发现的,很少依靠CT进行诊断。我们展示这例PET/CT上偶然发现的叠胃病例,以熟悉其表现。
