Odd Sites of Parathyroid Adenomas: 18F-fluorocholine PET/CT Pointing to the Right Place
Indian Journal of Nuclear Medicine(2024)
摘要
Primary hyperparathyroidism is mostly caused by parathyroid adenoma(s) which are generally localized using routine imaging modalities such as neck ultrasonography and 99mTc-SestaMIBI scintigraphy. However, these can miss ectopic parathyroid adenomas due to their limited sensitivities. These ectopic lesions can later lead to failure of surgical excision and necessitate the need for a re-exploration. 18F-fluorocholine (FCH) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) can help in the localization of these ectopic adenomas due to its superior detection rates and spatial resolution. Herein, we report a case of ectopic parathyroid adenomas that were localized on FCH PET/CT.
