A 54-year-old woman presented with a 55 × 64-mm tumor in the ovary with high [ 18 F]FDG uptake on [ 18 F]FDG PET/CT highly suggestive of ovarian cancer. Prior to surgery, the patient underwent [ 68 Ga]-Ga- fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI)-46 PET/CT, which revealed low [ 68 Ga]-Ga-FAPI-46 tumor uptake. Histopathology revealed a borderline ovarian tumor, which has low malignant potential and a 10-year survival rate greater than 93%. High [ 18 F]FDG uptake is considered a fair predictor of malignancy in adnexal tumors. The present case demonstrates the potential superiority of [ 68 Ga]-Ga-FAPI-46 PET/CT over [ 18 F]-FDG PET/CT in differentiating malignant adnexal tumors from borderline ovarian tumors.
一名54岁女性,卵巢有一个55×64毫米的肿瘤,[18F]FDG PET/CT显示该肿瘤[18F]FDG摄取高,高度提示卵巢癌。手术前,患者接受了[68Ga] - 镓 - 成纤维细胞激活蛋白抑制剂(FAPI)-46 PET/CT检查,结果显示[68Ga] - 镓 - FAPI-46肿瘤摄取低。组织病理学显示为交界性卵巢肿瘤,其恶性潜能低,10年生存率大于93%。[18F]FDG摄取高被认为是附件肿瘤恶性程度的一个合理预测指标。本病例证明了[68Ga] - 镓 - FAPI-46 PET/CT在区分恶性附件肿瘤与交界性卵巢肿瘤方面可能优于[18F] - FDG PET/CT。
