Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Internal mammary lymph node is rare metastatic site in ovarian neoplasm. In this study, we report an ovarian carcinosarcoma with peritoneal carcinomatosis initially. Annually, whole-body FDG PET/CT is indicated during 4 years. Tiny peritoneal nodules are found on the first-time FDG PET/CT imaging. A high grade of FDG-avid internal mammary nodal activity is shown on the secondary time of FDG PET/CT imaging. Pathologic result of excision biopsy demonstrates carcinoma metastasis. On the recent imaging, significant FDG-avid peritoneal and subphrenic carcinomatosis has happened again. After surgery and chemotherapy, the patient is still followed up in clinic. |
