Malignant involvement of the spine: assessment by 18F-FDG PET/CT.

The purpose of the study was to assess the role of (18)F-FDG PET/CT in the assessment of secondary malignant involvement of the spinal column. METHODS: In 51 patients, 242 lesions at the spinal region detected on (18)F-FDG PET/CT were interpreted separately on PET, CT, and fused PET/CT images, including differentiation between benign and malignant lesions and the level in the vertebral column. CT evaluation also included the type of bony lesion (osteolytic, osteoblastic, or mixed) and accompanying soft-tissue abnormalities; for example, epidural masses and tumor involvement of the neural foramina. RESULTS: Of the 242 lesions detected on PET/CT, PET alone identified 220 lesions and CT alone identified 159; 217 (90%) were malignant and 25 benign. (18)F-FDG PET alone detected significantly more malignant lesions than did CT alone (96% vs. 68%, respectively, P < 0.001). The specificity was 56% for both PET alone and CT alone. PET alone was incorrect in determining the level of abnormality within the vertebral column in 33 (15%) lesions and in determining the part of the vertebra involved in 40 (18%) lesions. In 17 (33%) patients, either epidural extension of tumor (n = 7 lesions), neural foramen involvement of tumor (n = 7 lesions), or a combination of both (n = 11 lesions) was detected. On a patient-based analysis, the sensitivity of PET and of PET/CT for the detection of spinal metastasis was 98% and 74%, respectively (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: (18)F-FDG PET/CT has better specificity for detection of malignant involvement of the spine than does (18)F-FDG PET. It allows for precise localization of lesions and identifies accompanying soft-tissue involvement, which is of potential neurologic significance.

A seldom case of primary urethral malignant melanoma and breast cancer detected by (18)F-FDG PET/CT

In the 1(st )issue of HJNM for 2012 we read with interest a case where 3 different cancers were detected. Synchronous second malignancy can be incidentally detected in routine fluorine-18-fluoro-deoxy-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ( (18)F-FDG PET/CT) imaging in approximately 1% of cancer patients with lungs being the most frequent site. We report the (18)F-FDG PET/CT scan for staging of the primary malignant melanoma of the urethra and for the detection of another malignancy in the breast in the same patient, since primary malignant melanoma of urethra is very seldom. A 65 years old post-menopausal woman presented with increased frequency of micturition, dysuria and a gradually enlarging mass protruding from the external urethral meatus. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) performed from the mass revealed malignant melanoma. On cystourethrescopy examination, a 4x4 cm blackish mass was noted at the external urethral meatus with a satellite nodule in the bladder trigone. Contrast enhanced CT (CeCT) of the pelvis showed soft tissue thickening along the urethra infiltrating urinary bladder neck and vagina. Analysis of (18)F-FDG PET/CeCT was performed to assess the extent of the disease. Intensely (18)F-FDG avid soft tissue mass (SUV(max): 20.1) was noticed along the entire length of the urethra with hypermetabolic right inguinal and left external iliac lymph nodes. In addition to (18)F-FDG uptake in the bladder wall and the vaginal wall, intense (18)F-FDG uptake was also seen in two soft tissue nodules in the right breast and in the axillary lymph nodes suggestive of a second primary in the breast. Cytological diagnosis of intraductal breast carcinoma was made after FNAC from the breast nodule. Urethral melanoma was treated with anterior exenteration and ileal conduit. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of primary malignant melanoma of urethra infiltrating the urinary bladder and anterior vaginal wall. Postoperative histopathology from the right inguinal and left external iliac lymph nodes revealed metastatic disease. The diagnostic contribution of PET/CT was crucial. Melanotic melanoma cells have a distinctive MRI signal, which may be helpful in diagnosis. In this case whole body MRI could have been of equal value for accurate staging of urethral melanoma, but whole body MRI is a cumbersome procedure and often is not practical. Primary urethral carcinoma is very rare and an annual ageadjusted incidence rate of 4.3 per 106 in males and 1.5 per 106 in females has been reported in USA. Primary malignant melanoma of the urethra is rare, representing less than 1% of all melanomas and 4% of urethral cancers. Furthermore, the incidence of two primary cancers is rare and is reported to be between 0.3% and 4.3%. Primary malignant melanoma of the urethra has a worse prognosis than its cutaneous counterpart, partly due to delayed diagnosis. At the time of diagnosis, urethral melanoma is usually deeply invasive and locally extended to the vagina or vulva or the corpora cavernosa. Inguinal lymph node metastases are present at diagnosis in half of the cases and distant metastases in one third of them. Positron emission tomography demonstrates specificity and accuracy of 94.7% and 73% respectively in detecting lymph nodal metastases. Sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of (18)F-FDG PET/CT in detecting metastases in high risk patients were 85%, 96%, 91% while for (18)F-FDG PET/CT with dedicated CT interpretation were 98%, % and 96%, respectively. Recently, the role of (18)F-FDG PET/CT in treatment response evaluation of melanoma patients has also been demonstrated. Incidental (18)F-FDG uptake in the breasts is rare, and the lesion may be malignant in up to 57% of the cases. To our knowledge no published literature is available on synchronous breast carcinoma and urethral melanoma. The reason why some patients are more prone to develop multiple cancers remains obscure. One possibility may be of a genetic predisposition linking the two cancers. Research suggests that mutations in CDKN2A, a gene that indicates high risk of developing melanoma, also puts carriers at an up to 3.8 times greater risk of breast cancer. Similarly, mutations in the gene of breast cancer susceptibility, BRCA2, increase carriers' risk of melanoma by as much as 2.58 times. In conclusion, we describe a case of two primary carcinomas: a unique urethral malignant melanoma and a breast carcinoma, detected and staged by (18)F-FDG PET/CT.
