Abstract:
The most common sites of distant metastases are lung, bone, pleura, and mediastinum in malignant phyllodes breast tumors. However, small bowel metastasis from malignant phyllodes breast tumors is rare. We reported that using CT and FDG PET/CT imaging we identified a case with small bowel metastasis from breast cancer. PET/CT scan showed that high 18 F-FDG uptake occurred in the duodenum and jejunum. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry analyses further confirmed that malignant phyllodes tumors are derived from the breast.
