Extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma (ENKTCL) is an aggressive lymphoma associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, with bladder involvement being extremely rare and only a few cases reported. We present a case of a 75-year-old man with hematuria, where 18 F-FDG PET/CT revealed focal bladder hypermetabolism (SUVmax: 9.7) and mural thickening. Then, histopathology confirmed ENKTCL. After chemotherapy, 18 F-FDG PET/CT showed complete metabolic resolution, demonstrating the diagnostic and therapeutic monitoring value of it.
结外NK/T细胞淋巴瘤(ENKTCL)是一种与爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒(EBV)感染相关的侵袭性淋巴瘤,膀胱受累极为罕见,仅有少数病例报道。我们报告一例75岁血尿男性病例,18F-FDG PET/CT显示膀胱局灶性高代谢(SUVmax:9.7)及壁增厚。随后,组织病理学确诊为ENKTCL。化疗后,18F-FDG PET/CT显示代谢完全缓解,证明了其诊断及治疗监测价值。
