摘要
We report the case of a 72-year-old woman who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy, right quadrantectomy (invasive ductal carcinoma, G3, pT2pN1pMx), and adjuvant radiotherapy. Two years later, a follow-up CT revealed a hepatic nodule of approximately 1 cm suspected for metastasis. 18F-FDG PET/CT was performed for restaging. Standard total-body 18F-FDG PET/CT acquisition showed no abnormal 18F-FDG uptake in the hepatic nodule. A delayed 18F-FDG PET/CT acquisition of upper abdomen was performed at 180 minutes postradiopharmaceutical injection and showed increased 18F-FDG uptake in the hepatic nodule. After nodule resection, the histological examination proved a cavernous hemangioma. © 2020 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.
