Axillary or elbow lymph node visualization after subcutaneous infiltration of the bone-imaging agent on a routine bone scintigraphy has been reported. The prostate cancer patient in this case report underwent bone scintigraphy; in 3-h bone images, the lymph nodes in the wrist, elbow, and axillary regions were simultaneously visualized. This was caused by extravasation of the intravenous injection of bone-imaging agent in the dorsal part of the patient's hand.
