A 12-year-old girl with no previous comorbidities presented with a left gluteal swelling. 18 F-FDG PET/CT demonstrated heterogenous, moderate hypermetabolism localizing to a very large pelvic soft tissue mass with extension through the left greater sciatic notch into the left deep gluteal space. Core biopsy of the mass revealed INI1-negative myoepithelial carcinoma. Here we report the molecular imaging findings in an extremely rare pediatric case of INI1-negative, soft tissue myoepithelial carcinoma.
一位 12 岁的女孩,既往无合并症,出现左侧臀部肿胀。18F-FDG PET/CT 显示不均匀、中度代谢活跃,定位于非常大的骨盆软组织肿块,通过左侧坐骨大切迹延伸至左侧深部臀肌间隙。肿块的核心活检显示 INI1 阴性的肌上皮癌。在此,我们报告了一例极其罕见的儿童 INI1 阴性软组织肌上皮癌的分子影像学发现。
