RESUMO

Positron-emission tomography (PET) with F18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is very helpful in the evaluation and management of lung lesions. It is specially useful for the characterization of solitary nodules, for the staging, evaluation of recurrence and therapeutic response in non-small cell lung cancer, for the evaluation of small cell lung cancer and for the assessment of pulmonary metastases. This article is a literature review on PET with FDG in lung cancer. A preliminary analysis of PET results at the Military Hospital in Santiago, Chile, is also presented.

RESUMO

We report a 38 years old female patient with a pancreatic mucinous cystadenocarcinoma. She presented at the onset with a peritoneal rupture that required emergency surgery. Five months later, the patient was subjected to a segmental pancreatectomy and splenectomy. One year later, the patient had a serious gastric bleeding secondary to a gastric ulcer. Due to a persistent increase in her CA 19-9 levels, a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) functional imaging with fluorine 18-deoxyglucose (F18FDG) was done. It showed an intense focal hypermetabolism in the gastric wall reported as a secondary tumour location. The patient was subjected to a total gastrectomy and Roux en Y anastomosis, with a good outcome. The pathological study confirmed the presence of a metastasis of an adenocarcinoma in the gastric wall. The relative value of CA 19-9 markers and FDG PET in pancreatic and gastric carcinomas is discussed (Rev MÚd Chile 2004; 132: 347-52).
