  • Title: Pulmonary Artery Sarcoma Detected on 18F-FDG PET/CT With Unusual Findings.
    Author: Guo Y, Wang T, Yang M.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 2015 Nov; 40(11):e530-1. PubMed ID: 26444651.
    Abstract:
    A 32-year-old woman, who presented with "sharp pain" in the right chest for more than 1 month and worsening dyspnea and fever for 10 days, was initially thought to have a pulmonary embolism. Cardiac ultrasound showed an ill-defined echogenic mass within the pulmonary trunk. F-FDG PET/CT was performed for further evaluation. PET/CT showed an intense hypermetabolism in the main, bilateral proximal, and the right main pulmonary arteries, suggesting the presence of a malignant lesion. Biopsy confirmed the lesion as a primary pulmonary artery sarcoma.
