Visualization of Parathyroid Hyperplasia Using 18F-Fluorocholine PET/MR in a Patient With Secondary Hyperparathyroidism.

چکیده
Several imaging modalities exist for the detection of parathyroid adenomas in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism. Unlike solitary parathyroid adenoma, parathyroid hyperplasia in patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism hitherto is difficult to assess with any imaging modality. Our case of a young patient with chronic kidney failure illustrates that F-fluorocholine PET/MR might be an imaging tool suitable for the diagnosis and presurgical assessment of parathyroid hyperplasia.

Comparison of 18F-Fluorocholine Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography and Four-dimensional Computed Tomography in the Preoperative Localization of Parathyroid Adenomas-initial Results
OBJECTIVE We aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of 18F-Fluorocholine (FCH)-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and four-dimensional (4D)- CT in detection and localization of eutopic and ectopic parathyroid adenoma (PA) in patients with hyperparathyroidism. MATERIALS AND METHODS Five patients with primary hyperparathyroidism underwent FCH-PET/CT after 60 min of 185 ...
متن کاملMinimally invasive radio-guided surgery for hyperparathyroidism: an experience with Tc-99m Sestamibi
Introduction: Radio-guided parathyroid surgery along with other minimally invasive surgeries constitutes the main surgical treatment procedures for different kinds of hyperparathyroidism. In this article we have reported our experience of radio-guided parathyroid surgery using Tc-99m sestamibi. Methods: Ten patients with hyperparathyroidism included in our study. ...

We compared F-fluorocholine hybrid positron emission tomography/X-ray computed tomography (FCH-PET/CT) with ultrasonography (US) and scintigraphy in patients with hyperparathyroidism and discordant, or equivocal results of US and I/Tc-sesta-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (sestaMIBI) dual-phase parathyroid scintigraphy. FCH-PET/CT was performed in 17 patients with primary (n1⁄4 11) lithium induced (n...
متن کاملOptimal scan time for evaluation of parathyroid adenoma with [18F]-fluorocholine PET/CT
BACKGROUND Parathyroid adenomas, the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism, are benign tumours which autonomously produce and secrete parathyroid hormone. [(18)F]-fluorocholine (FCH), PET marker of cellular proliferation, was recently demonstrated to accumulate in lesions representing enlarged parathyroid tissue; however, the optimal time to perform FCH PET/CT after FCH administratio...
متن کاملIncidental uptake of 18F-fluorocholine (FCH) in the head or in the neck of patients with prostate cancer
BACKGROUND Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) with (18)F-fluorocholine (FCH) is routinely performed in patients with prostate cancer. In this clinical context, foci of FCH uptake in the head or in the neck were considered as incidentalomas, except for those suggestive of multiple bone metastases. RESULTS In 8 patients the incidental focus corresponded to a benign tumour...
