Title: Gallium 67 uptake in thymic rebound. Author: Hurst R, Sabio H, Teates CD. Journal: South Med J; 1988 Sep; 81(9):1167-9. PubMed ID: 3420448. Abstract: We have reported a case of localized thymic enlargement and uptake of gallium 67 in a child who had received antineoplastic chemotherapy. The enlarged thymus showed normal histology, a picture consistent with thymic rebound after nonspecific stress. This case further demonstrates the need to consider thymic rebound as a cause of gallium 67 uptake in children with neoplastic diseases.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
