Resumen

La tomografía por emisión de positrones es una técnica de eficacia comprobada en la detección de la afección locoregional y a distancia del cáncer de mama.

Presentamos el caso de dos pacientes con afección axilar secundaria a cáncer oculto de mama, en los que la tomografía por emisión de positrones con 18-fluoro-2-desoxi-D-glucosa (PET-FDG) permitió identificar la localización del tumor primario y por tanto efectuar un tratamiento quirúrgico posterior.

Analizamos, además, la utilidad de la PET-FDG y de los métodos de imagen convencionales en el diagnóstico de esta entidad.

Palabras clave:
Carcinoma primario oculto de mama
Tomografía de emisión por positrones (PET)
18-fluoro-2- desoxi-D-glucosa (FDG)

Positron emission tomography (PET) has been proved to be effective in detecting locoregional and distant breast cancer. We report two patients with axillary involvement secondary to occult primary breast carcinoma. The use of PET with fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) enabled identification of the primary breast tumor and the appropriate surgical treatment to be given. In addition, we analyze the usefulness of PET-FDG and that of conventional imaging methods in the diagnosis of this entity.

Key words:
Occult primary breast cancer
Positron emission tomography (PET)
18-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG)
