Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Neuroblastoma is an embryonal tumor from the neural crest cell, which generally occurs in young children with a median age of about 17 months. The incidence of adult was only 0.12 cases per million per year. Because metastatic disease was present in approximately one-third of all adult patients at diagnosis, accurate staging was necessary before the initial therapy. We report F-18 FDG PET/CT findings a case of adult neuroblastoma in the anterior mediastinum with skeletal and pulmonary metastasis, which demonstrates the utility of F-18 FDG PET/CT in the staging of adult neuroblastoma. |
