Follicular lymphoma (FL) is clinically classified as a common type of indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. FL is generally indolent and has good prognosis, it can involve a variety of extranodal sites, including the gastrointestinal tract, bone marrow, spleen, liver, skin, and other organs. Secondary involvement of pancreas in FL is rare. We report the case of a patient with FL whose initial fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) revealed subdiaphragmatic involvement with isolated diffuse pancreatic hypermetabolism. Uncovering such rare site highlights the role of FDG-PET/CT in staging of lymphomas.
滤泡性淋巴瘤(FL)在临床上被归类为一种常见的惰性非霍奇金淋巴瘤。FL通常呈惰性,预后良好,可累及多种结外部位,包括胃肠道、骨髓、脾脏、肝脏、皮肤和其他器官。FL继发胰腺受累较为罕见。我们报告了1例FL患者,其最初的氟脱氧葡萄糖-正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描(FDG-PET/CT)显示膈下受累并伴有孤立性弥漫性胰腺代谢增高。发现这种罕见部位凸显了FDG-PET/CT在淋巴瘤分期中的作用。
