  • Title: Scintigraphic evaluation of multifocal hemangioendothelioma of bone.
    Author: Anez LF, Gupta SM, Berger D, Spera J, Johns WD.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1993 Oct; 18(10):840-3. PubMed ID: 8242975.
    Abstract:
    Multifocal bone involvement was seen on bone scintigraphy in a young woman being examined for a suspected bone lesion noted on pelvic radiographs. Biopsy of the third lumbar vertebral body demonstrated a vascular lesion. The tumor was resected and a bone graft was performed. The patient was followed with serial scans to assess the viability of the bone graft and course of the disease. This report analyzes the scintigraphic characteristics of this rare tumor and emphasizes the importance of bone scintigraphy in the diagnosis, treatment, and follow up of this condition.
