  • Title: Splenic Marginal Zone B-Cell Lymphoma With Splenic Infarction in a Patient With Cold Agglutinin Disease.
    Author: Nakamoto R, Okuyama C, Utsumi T, Yamamoto Y.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 2019 May; 44(5):e372-e374. PubMed ID: 30888998.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of splenic marginal zone B-cell lymphoma discovered in a 73-year-old man with cold agglutinin disease. PET/CT revealed splenomegaly with focally intense uptake of F-FDG and diffusely increased bone marrow uptake, which was considered to be secondary to hemolytic anemia. Splenectomy was performed. The histopathology of the spleen showed splenic marginal zone B-cell lymphoma with partial splenic infarction, which correlated with the area of focal intense FDG uptake. Depending on the time since onset, splenic infarctions can present as focal FDG accumulation.
