摘要
A 33-year-old man had a diagnosis of a spitzoid melanoma by dorsal skin biopsy. During the oncological follow-up, patient underwent whole-body FDG PET/CT for restaging purpose. FDG PET/CT showed a large necrotic mass of the pituitary gland, subsequently confirming a solitary pituitary metastasis from spitzoid melanoma.
