Capivasertib has emerged as a promising treatment for advanced breast and prostate cancer. Here, we report two cases of metastatic breast cancer patients who developed splenic hypermetabolism on [18 F]-FDG PET/CT following treatment with capivasertib. To our knowledge, these are the first documented instances of this treatment-related phenomenon. Although the mechanism behind this side effect remains unclear, these cases highlight an important imaging phenomenon that radiologists should consider when interpreting [18 F]-FDG PET/CT scans in patients treated with capivasertib.
卡匹西利已成为晚期乳腺癌和前列腺癌的一种有前景的治疗方法。在此,我们报告两例转移性乳腺癌患者,她们在接受卡匹西利治疗后,[18F]-FDG PET/CT显示脾脏代谢亢进。据我们所知,这些是这种治疗相关现象的首例记录病例。尽管这种副作用背后的机制尚不清楚,但这些病例突出了一种重要的影像学现象,放射科医生在解读接受卡匹西利治疗患者的[18F]-FDG PET/CT扫描时应予以考虑。
