  • Title: Solitary splenic metastasis from hepatocellular carcinoma detected on (18)F-FDG PET/CT.
    Author: Kim DH, Jeong SY, Lee SW, Lee J, Ahn BC.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 2015 Jun; 40(6):e325-7. PubMed ID: 25546205.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of solitary splenic metastasis from hepatocellular carcinoma detected on F-FDG PET/CT. A 67-year-old man with hepatocellular carcinoma was referred for F-FDG PET/CT to determine the cause of his elevated serum α-fetoprotein levels after liver segmentectomy and radio-frequency ablation. F-FDG PET/CT imaging showed focal FDG uptake in the spleen, with no other abnormal findings. A splenectomy was performed, and histopathologic examination confirmed the lesion as a metastasis from the hepatocellular carcinoma.
