ABSTRACT
The role of positron emission tomography (PET) with F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18 FDG) in the diagnosis of hepatocellulcar carcinoma (HCC) has been limited because of a variable FDG uptake in HCC. However, the usefulness of PET/CT for detecting extrahepatic metastasis and monitoring of the treatment response in HCC has been reported. A 55-year-old man with a hepatitis B surface antigen-positive, was admitted to our hospital due to dyspnea, general weakness and body weight loss for one month. Chest X-ray showed multiple reticulo-nodular densities on both lower lung fields, which implies metastatic lesions. F-18 FDG PET/CT revealed consecutively intense hypermetabolic mass in right hepatic lobe, inferior vena cava and right atrium. We report a case of HCC with IVC and right atrium invasion identified by F-18 FDG PET/CT.
