Abstract

It is well known that hematopoietic cytokine stimulation can cause increased fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) accumulation in bone marrow on PET/CT imaging, which simulates that seen in patients with bone marrow metastases. However, increased bone marrow FDG uptake can be caused by other etiologies. We report a patient with operated renal cell carcinoma had no history of hematopoietic cytokine stimulation. The FDG PET/CT images showed increased bone marrow FDG uptake, and the patient was diagnosed as chronic myeloid leukemia. This case revealed that increased FDG uptake on bone marrow may be related to neoplastic disease of the hematopoietic tissues.

Keywords:
Leukemia
Positron emission tomography/computed tomography
Fluorodeoxyglucose
Renal cell carcinoma
Resumen

Es por todos conocido que la estimulación citocina hematopoyética puede causar un aumento en la acumulación de fluorodeoxiglucosa (FDG) en la medula ósea en las imágenes del PET/TAC de pacientes con metástasis en la medula ósea. Sin embargo, la captación aumentada por la medula ósea puede deberse a otras etiologías. Presentamos el caso de un paciente operado de carcinoma de células renales sin una historia de estimulación hematopoyética. Las imágenes de la FDG PET/TAC muestran la captación aumentada de FDG en la medula ósea y el paciente fue diagnosticado de leucemia mieloide crónica. Este caso muestra que la captación aumentada de FDG en la medula ósea puede relacionarse con la enfermedad neoplástica de los tejidos hematopoyéticos.
