Burkitt lymphoma is a highly invasive non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Sporadic Burkitt's lymphoma is commonly found in the abdomen. However, Burkitt lymphoma infiltrating the uterus is uncommon in occurrence. We report the results of F-FDG PET/CT examination of a 36-year-old woman. The report indicates that in addition to the strong uptake of FDG imaging agent in the uterus, bilateral cervical and abdominal lymph nodes also have strong activity. At the same time, it was also found that bilateral small breast nodules, sacral canal and multiple bones in the whole body showed a radiation uptake pattern similar to that of the uterus. F-FDG PET/CT imaging can help determine the extent of the disease and the affected body area, which is helpful to guide the treatment decision. This case report shows the application of F-FDG PET/CT imaging in the diagnosis, staging and post-treatment evaluation of Burkitt lymphoma of the uterus. It provides very useful information for clinicians and helps to improve the accuracy of diagnosis and treatment effect.
伯基特淋巴瘤是一种侵袭性很强的非霍奇金淋巴瘤。散发性伯基特淋巴瘤常见于腹部。然而,浸润子宫的伯基特淋巴瘤较为罕见。我们报告了一名36岁女性的F-FDG PET/CT检查结果。报告显示,除子宫内FDG显像剂摄取强烈外,双侧颈部和腹部淋巴结也有强烈活性。同时,还发现双侧乳腺小结节、骶管及全身多处骨骼呈现与子宫相似的放射性摄取模式。F-FDG PET/CT成像有助于确定疾病范围和受累身体区域,有助于指导治疗决策。本病例报告展示了F-FDG PET/CT成像在子宫伯基特淋巴瘤诊断、分期及治疗后评估中的应用。它为临床医生提供了非常有用的信息,有助于提高诊断准确性和治疗效果。
