FDG PET/CT of Spinal Brucellosis
Abstract:
A 17-year-old adolescent boy's known case of classical seminoma stage IB for which he underwent right radical orchiectomy. At the first-year follow-up, CT abdomen and pelvis was performed and showed lytic vertebral lesion with left paravertebral necrotic mass that warranted further investigation to exclude disease recurrence. FDG PET/CT scan was performed to evaluate the extent of disease and showed high uptake in the same areas. A biopsy was obtained from the hypermetabolic soft tissue lesion and did not reveal malignant cells. Subsequently, serologic tests were suggestive of brucellosis.
