多系统结节病18F-FDG PET显像1例

A case of multisystemic sarcoidosis evaluated by 18F-FDG PET imaging

  • 摘要: 结节病是一种病因未明的多系统性疾病,其特征性病理表现为非干酪性上皮样细胞肉芽肿的形成。该病临床表现多样,且缺乏特异性诊断标志物,通常累及肺和淋巴结,多系统受累较为罕见。笔者报道了1例中年女性多系统结节病患者,主要临床表现为胸闷及心悸,既往有未规律治疗的肺结节病病史。通过心脏18F-FDG PET/MRI和全身PET/CT显像,发现了多器官(包括肺、心脏、肝脏、脾脏、骨骼和淋巴结)的受累。本病例强调了18F-FDG在结节病诊断中的重要性,特别是一体化PET/MRI多模态成像技术在提高心脏结节病诊断准确性中的互补价值。

     

    Abstract: Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disorder of unknown etiology, histopathologically characterized by the formation of non-caseating epithelioid cell granulomas. Clinical manifestations are highly variable and often nonspecific, with no definitive diagnostic biomarkers currently available. The disease primarily affects the lungs and lymph nodes, while extensive systemic involvement is relatively rare. The authors report a case of a middle-aged female patient with systemic sarcoidosis who presented with exertional chest tightness and palpitations. She had a history of pulmonary sarcoidosis that had not been regularly treated. Through cardiac 18F-FDG PET/MRI and whole-body PET/CT imaging, involvement of multiple organs (including the lungs, heart, liver, spleen, bones, and lymph nodes) was identified. This case emphasizes the importance of 18F-FDG in the diagnosis of sarcoidosis, particularly the complementary value of integrated PET/MRI multimodal imaging technology in enhancing cardiac sarcoidosis diagnostic accuracy.
