Incidental uptake in [18F]FDG PET/CT is not uncommon, but uptake in the oral and sinonasal regions was less frequently reported. We present a case of incidental focal [18F]FDG PET/CT uptake within the hard palate, which was later revealed to be an ossifying fibroma. We also reviewed some relevant literature and suggested that further investigation may be necessary for some patients with incidental [18F]FDG PET/CT uptake in the oral and sinonasal regions.
[18F]FDG PET/CT 中的偶然摄取并不罕见,但口腔和鼻腔区域的摄取较少见报道。我们报告了一例硬腭内偶然出现的[18F]FDG PET/CT 摄取,后来证实为骨化性纤维瘤。我们还回顾了一些相关文献,并建议对于口腔和鼻腔区域偶然出现[18F]FDG PET/CT 摄取的一些患者,可能需要进一步检查。
