Abstract

Carotid body paraganglioma is a slow growing tumor of head and neck region. It can rarely be malignant in nature which is characterized by distant metastases on anatomical imaging. We share an interesting presentation of a malignant carotid body on F-18 FDG PET/CT in form of liver and skeletal metastases.

摘要

颈动脉体副神经节瘤是一种生长缓慢的头颈部肿瘤。它本质上很少是恶性的，其特征是解剖成像上的远处转移。我们在F-18FDGPET/CT上以肝脏和骨骼转移的形式分享了恶性颈动脉体的有趣表现。
