摘要
Metastatic pulmonary calcification (MPC) is a metabolic disorder characterized by an ectopic deposition of calcium in the lung parenchyma, prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease. A combination of parenchymal lung abnormalities on high resolution chest computed tomography (CT) and pulmonary radiotracer uptake in 99mTc-methyl diphosphate (MDP) bone scintigraphy can establish diagnosis of MPC. We herein present a case of MPC with documented stability of chest CT abnormalities after renal transplant. We also describe novel findings of diffuse pulmonary uptake of 18F-sodium fluoride, a calcium-avid radiotracer, in positron emission tomography (PET)/CT performed in the same patient.
