Multiple Nervous System Involvement of Erdheim-Chester Disease With Responsive Perinephritic Hypermetabolism
CLINICAL NUCLEAR MEDICINE(2024)
Abstract
A 36-year-old man who was at follow-up for histiocytosis had sudden-onset symptoms of unilateral ophthalmic increased pressure. The patient was referred to the FDG PET/CT for determination of involvement with suspicion of Erdheim-Chester disease. The reduction of the FDG uptake in all of the lesions (medial temporal lobes, nasal septum, medulla spinalis in sacral region, as well as perinephritic infiltrations), which were determined by the first PET/CT, was achieved at second imaging.
