The prevalence of hepatic perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasm (PEComa) is extremely low, and imaging diagnosis is very difficult. We presented 18 F-FDG and 68 Ga-FAPI PET/CT findings in a 58-year-old woman with pathologically confirmed hepatic PEComa. The tumor showed intense 68 Ga-FAPI uptake but only mild 18 F-FDG activity on PET/CT studies. This case suggested that 68 Ga-FAPI PET/CT might be a useful tool for evaluation of hepatic PEComa with remarkable tumor-to-liver ratios.
肝血管周上皮样细胞瘤(PEComa)的患病率极低,影像学诊断非常困难。我们报告了一例 58 岁女性肝 PEComa 的 18 F-FDG 和 68 Ga-FAPI PET/CT 表现。肿瘤在 PET/CT 研究中表现出强烈的 68 Ga-FAPI 摄取,但仅轻度 18 F-FDG 活性。该病例提示 68 Ga-FAPI PET/CT 可能是评估肝 PEComa 的有用工具,具有显著的肿瘤与肝脏比值。
