18F-FDG PET/CT findings of a recurrent adenocarcinoma arising from malignant transformation of abdominal wall endometriosis.
Clinical nuclear medicine(2015)
Abstract
Abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE) is defined as endometrial tissue located superficial to the peritoneum, which usually develops in a surgical scar of cesarean delivery. Malignant transformation of AWE is a very rare disease. The most frequent histotype of malignancy developing from AWE is endometrioid adenocarcinoma. We present F-FDG PET/CT findings in a 37-year-old woman with a recurrent adenocarcinoma arising from malignant transformation of AWE, who underwent a repeat PET/CT scan because of a recurrent mass at the upper right side of the surgical incision after a previous cesarean delivery.
