Item A Case of a Man With Isolated Breast Metastasis From Lung Adenocarcinoma Incidentally Detected by FDG PET/CT(2016) Erhamamci, Seval; Reyhan, Mehmet; Canpolat, Tuba; Nursal, Gul Nihal; Yapar, Ali Fuat; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8550-3368; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5302-4386; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1715-4180; 26562574; AAJ-5242-2021; AAK-8107-2021; R-3735-2016; AAI-8973-2021Breast metastases from an extramammary primary tumor are very rare, particularly in men. In this study, we present a case of a 74-year-old man with isolated breast metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma as an incidental finding on PET/CT and diagnosed concomitantly with the primary tumor. Detection of isolated incidental metastatic lesions in the breast on PET/CT imaging has a significant clinical impact on patients with known malignant disease due to change of disease stage, management, and also treatment method.Item A Rare Case of Primary Cardiac Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Imaged with F-18-FDG PET/CT(2022) Erhamamci, Seval; Aslan, Nesrin; 35771036Primary cardiac lymphoma is an extremely rare malignancy. A few reports about the findings of (18)fluorine-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-1(8)-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging has been presented. We report a rare case of a 70-year-old male with diagnosed primary intracardiac diffuse large B-cell lymphoma referred for F-18-FDG PET/CT imaging for initial staging. The scan revealed an abnormal hypermetabolic gross tumoral lesion involving the right atrium and auricula. After completing three cycles of chemotherapy, post-treatment F-18-FDG PET/CT showed complete response.Item Comparative Findings Between Ga-68-PSMA and F-18-FDG PET/CT for Hepatocellular Carcinoma(2020) Erhamamci, Seval; Aslan, Nesrin; 0000-0001-5016-4650; 33094578We have reported here the case of a 69-year-old man who presented with spinal cord compression due to bone metastases as the first manifestation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). For the initial staging, the patient underwent F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computerized tomography (PET/CT) imaging, which demonstrated mild F-18-FDG uptake in the multiple expansile osteolytic bone lesions, but no remarkable atypical F-18-FDG uptake in the liver lesion on low-doses CT. An additional PET/CT scan was performed to evaluate the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) expression, which has recently been reported to be a potential biological marker in a variety of tumors including HCC. High PSMA uptake was recorded in both the metastatic bone lesions and the primary liver lesion/tumor by the Ga-68-PSMA PET/CT.
