  • Title: Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the lung mimics aspergilloma on ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT.
    Author: Zhang Y, Li B, Shi H, Cai L, Gu Y.
    Journal: Hell J Nucl Med; 2015; 18(3):268-70. PubMed ID: 26574699.
    Abstract:
    Primary PSC in the lung is a rare malignant cancer that represents a particularly aggressive subtype of non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC) containing sarcoma or sarcoma-like components with spindle or giant cell features. The medical literature referring to imaging characteristics by fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (¹⁸F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) of these tumors is very limited. We present a case of PSC with air crescent and halo signs that resemble aspergilloma on the ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT, scan.
