Abstract:
A 23-year-old man was recently diagnosed with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH). 68 Ga-FAPI PET/CT showed multiple lesions with intense FAPI uptake in the axial and appendicular skeleton with lytic or mixed bone destruction, consistent with osseous lesions of LCH. FAPI-avid foci around the right atrium and inferior vena cava, as well as micronodules and thin-walled cysts in the lungs, were also noted, possibly also involvement of LCH. This case suggested that 68 Ga-FAPI PET/CT may have the potential to be applied in evaluation of LCH.
