  • Title: Enhanced CT and FDG PET/CT in Histiocytic Sarcoma of the Pericardium.
    Author: Dong A, Wang Y, Cui Y, Zuo C.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 2016 Apr; 41(4):326-7. PubMed ID: 26545021.
    Abstract:
    Histiocytic sarcoma is an extremely rare and aggressive malignant neoplasm of presumed hematopoietic origin. Lymph nodes are the most common sites of involvement. A variety of extranodal sites can be involved, particularly the gastrointestinal tract, soft tissue, skin, and spleen. Radiologic findings of histiocytic sarcoma have been rarely reported. We present a case with histiocytic sarcoma in pericardium, which is an unusual site. Enhanced chest CT showed remarkable enhancement of the tumor. On FDG PET/CT, the tumor showed intense FDG uptake.
