Breast cancer restaging.IMAGES: Submitted for interpretation are FDG PET/CT images from the skull vertex through the thighs labeled Edward hospital dated 1/20/15. (The nonenhanced CT images were obtained solely for purposes of completing the PET scan, are not of diagnostic quality and are thus not interpreted or used to diagnose disease independently of the PET images.) Today's CT portion grossly demonstrates a right occipital craniotomy defect. There has been a right mastectomy. Left chest Port-A-Cath with tip in the SVC. Layering sludge is seen within the gallbladder. Multiple enlarged retroperitoneal and mesenteric lymph nodes are seen. The patient is apparently post vertebroplasty at L3. Significant facet degenerative changes are seen at L4/5 with high-density extension on the left into the posterior soft tissues which may represent associated calcification or ossification.Today's PET examination demonstrates multiple small to medium sized abnormally markedly hypermetabolic lymph nodes in the abdominal retroperitoneum and pelvic mesentery. The largest such focus is seen just anterior to the iliac bifurcation (SUV max = 10.1). This is highly suspicious for tumor such as metastatic breast cancer or conceivably lymphoma.Markedly increased activity involves the anterior vertebral body of L3 (SUV max = 10.1). This activity surrounds apparent methacrylate from vertebroplasty. Given the overall PET/CT appearance, benign postprocedural remodeling / inflammatory activity is favored, although tumor involvement cannot be entirely excluded. Conceivably however, vertebroplasty could have been performed through tumor-involved bone.Linear activity at the inferior endplate of L4 as well is prominent involvement of bilateral L4/5 facets (SUV max = 8.6) is considered more likely benign degenerative although again tumor cannot be entirely excluded. No additional suspicious FDG avid lesion. Focus of activity in the left Port-A-Cath hub represents residual radiotracer. Diffuse mild muscle activity adjacent to both scapulae is also benign inflammation. Focus of increased activity at the left mid cervical facets are benign degenerative. Decreased activity from a prior right occipital craniotomy is also noted.
1.Multiple markedly hypermetabolic abdominal and pelvic lymph nodes are highly suspicious for tumor. While these may reflect metastatic breast cancer, given the somewhat atypical location, other etiologies such as lymphoma are conceivable.2.Multiple hypermetabolic lumbar spine lesions could conceivably represent tumor but are considered more likely benign unless vertebroplasty was performed through preexistent tumor. Correlation with any pathologic samples which may have been obtained during that procedure would be useful.

A patient submitted outside study for review. Submitted for review are digital mammographic images with tomosynthesis (2/5/15, 2/19/15), ultrasound images (2/19/15), images from ultrasound guided biopsy of right breast (2/25/15), post-procedural right digital mammographic images (2/25/15) performed at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. For comparison, digital mammographic images (2/4/14, 2/26/14), ultrasound images (2/26/14) are available. DIGITAL MAMMOGRAPHIC IMAGES WITH TOMOSYNTHESIS (2/5/15, 2/19/15):The breast parenchyma is composed of scattered fibroglandular elements, unchanged in pattern and distribution. There is a new cluster of calcifications at posterior upper outer quadrant in the right breast. Scattered benign appearing calcifications are seen in right breast. A circumscribed benign mass is present in the right breast at anterior upper outer aspect.In the left breast, circumscribed round masses are present at upper outer quadrant and upper inner quadrant.ULTRASOUND IMAGES (2/19/15):There is an irregular hypoechoic "lesion" with shadowing, measuring 3 x 8 x 8 mm, at 9:00 position, 2 cm from nipple, in the right breast. This "lesion" might be just a shadowing artifact. A few cysts are visualized in the right breast; at 8:00 and 10:00 position. Multiple simple cysts are visualized in the left breast; at 2:00, 3:00 and 9:00 position.Those simple cysts correspond to the circumscribed masses on the mammogram.IMAGES FROM ULTRASOUND GUIDED BIOPSY OF RIGHT BREAST (2/25/15):Ultrasound guided biopsy was performed for the right 9:00 lesion. A coil clip was placed after the biopsy.POST-PROCEDURAL RIGHT DIGITAL MAMMOGRAPHIC IMAGES (2/25/15):Per outside radiology report, stereotactic biopsy was performed for the small cluster of calcifications at posterior upper outer quadrant in the right breast, in addition to the ultrasound guided biopsy of right breast.A coil clip from ultrasound guided biopsy is present at anterior 8 - 9 o'clock position, and a dumbbell clip from stereotactic biopsy is present at posterior upper outer quadrant. Per outside report, pathology for stereotactic biopsy included ADH and LCIS, and the pathology of ultrasound guided biopsy was benign. The result of ultrasound guided biopsy is concordant, as the imaging findings suggest an artifactual "lesion".
Biopsy proven ADH and LCIS at posterior upper outer quadrant in the right breast. Multiple cysts in both breasts. No mammographic or sonographic evidence for malignancy in the left breast. BIRADS:4 - Suspicious Abnormality. RECOMMENDATION:X - No Letter.

History of of prostate cancer with rising PSA level. There is a new small focus of activity in the right fourth posterolateral rib, new from previous. While this could represent a new fracture, it has some features (i.e. wider than tall) of some suspicion for a metastasis. The patient describes a recent fall with pain to the left knee but denies pain around the posterior upper rib. No other suspicious osseous lesions are visualized. Increased activity in the lateral left tibial plateau may be degenerative or post-traumatic in nature. Activity in the superior posterior bladder is a diverticulum as confirmed on recent CT.
A single new right rib lesion is indeterminate and could represent a new fracture or a metastasis. A non-contrast chest CT can be performed for further evaluation.

History of ethesioneuroblastoma and thyroid cancer. Evaluate disease status.RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL: 9.5 mCi F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).BLOOD GLUCOSE (FASTING): 114 mg/dL. Today's CT portion grossly demonstrates post-surgical changes of bilateral antrectomies with mucosal thickening of the bilateral maxillary sinuses. There are postsurgical changes in the thyroid bed. Atelectasis/scarring is noted in the left upper lobe. A hypodense right renal lesion likely represents a cyst. There is long segment narrowing, wall thickening, and surrounding inflammatory changes of the descending colon. There is suggestion of a subtle soft tissue lesion in the thecal sac posterior to the sacrum.Today's PET examination demonstrates a large markedly hypermetabolic soft tissue density lesion in the inferior spinal canal/thecal sac extending from the level of L5 to the mid-body of the sacrum. This may represent a drop metastases from ethesioneuroblastoma or other metastatic disease. This was subtly present previously but has increased significantly in size and metabolic activity (max SUV = 48.4, previously 3.9). No additional abnormal foci of FDG activity to suggest tumor elsewhere.There is uniform colonic activity extending from the splenic flexure to the anus consistent with history of inflammatory bowel disease, which is similar to previous.There is a focus of decreased activity in the right inferoanterior medial frontal cortex which is presumably post-therapeutic, unchanged.
Large markedly hypermetabolic mass in the inferior spinal canal from the L5 to mid sacral level is markedly progressed from the previous examination. This is compatible with tumor progression, likely a drop metastasis from ethesioneuroblastoma. Conceivably, but less likely, this could represent a synchronous primary tumor. Further definition of the lesion could be made with MRI.

Personal history of bilateral renal tumors and pulmonary cysts. LUNGS AND PLEURA: Multiple pulmonary cysts distributed throughout the lungs bilaterally.No pneumothorax.Calcified nodules consistent with prior infection.Noncalcified scattered micronodules, likely also post-inflammatory, though special attention should be paid on follow-up scans to confirm stability.MEDIASTINUM AND HILA: Scattered small mediastinal lymph nodes. No lymphadenopathy.Severe coronary calcification. No pericardial effusion.Nonspecific left thyroid lobe enlargementCHEST WALL: Mild degenerative changes of the thoracic spine.UPPER ABDOMEN: Refer to separately dictated CT abdomen/pelvis report.
Multiple pulmonary cysts, which given history of multiple renal masses, raises the possibility of Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome, although lymphangioleiomyomatosis or simple cysts would be more common diagnoses. Scattered micronodules, likely post-inflammatory, special attention on follow-up scans to confirm stability.

Refractory Hodgkin's Lymphoma RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL: 9.7 mCi F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).BLOOD GLUCOSE (FASTING): 89 mg/dL. Today's CT portion grossly demonstrates no definite lymphadenopathy in the neck, chest, abdomen or pelvis. Right chest wall port with catheter extending to the right atrium. Again seen is a stable mixed lytic and sclerotic lesion diffusely involving the T10 vertebra. Scattered lytic osseous iliac lesions are again noted appearing similar to the prior exam.Today's PET examination demonstrates complete resolution of previously hypermetabolic activity in the left neck, bilateral axillae, mediastinum, abdomen and pelvis without convincing FDG avid tumor currently. There is a punctate focus of moderate activity immediately posterior to the right retrocrural region which has an SUVmax of 4.2. This is more prominent than seen previously but is considered more likely of a benign inflammatory etiology.
Essentially complete interval response to therapy without convincing FDG avid tumor currently. Punctate right retrocrural hypermetabolic focus is considered most likely inflammatory but attention can be paid to this region in future follow-up exams.

49-year-old female with intermittent epigastric pain, evaluate for obstruction/adhesions The scout radiograph demonstrated a biliary drain in the right upper quadrant. Scattered, mildly dilated small and large bowel loops with air-fluid levels. Amorphous stool is noted in the descending colon. Evaluation of small bowel showed diffuse dilation of small bowel with decreased peristalsis (cine series 17). In the right lower quadrant, likely distal ileum, there is a fixed, angulated loop of small bowel. In this area, there is an approximate 7-cm segment of small bowel, likely distal ileum, with an irregular contour along the mesenteric aspect suggestive of additional adhesive disease (series 11, 12).Transit time to the terminal ileum was 3 hours and 30 minutes. Spot films of the terminal ileum were within normal limits. The terminal ileum and ileocecal valve were normal in appearance. No internal hernias or ventral hernias were evident. TOTAL FLUOROSCOPY TIME: 9:44 minutes

There are lobulated areas of intrinsic T1 hyperintensity which appear overall similar to the prior exam along the posterior inferior margin of the left thalamic known AVM. This is consistent with embolic material. There is slight decreased extent of irregularly shaped intrinsic T1 hyperintensity at the level of the atrium as seen on 601/14 is compared to prior outside 6/14. Overall, there appears to be decreased number of tiny flow-voids in the region of the left sided AVM, although there is significant increased extent of T2/FLAIR hyperintensity within the adjacent white matter, extending towards the internal and external capsule on the left as well as the mesial left temporal lobe. FLAIR hyperintensity extends caudally into the left dorsal lateral midbrain. There is again prominence of the draining vein extending medially with an enlarged internal cerebral veins bilaterally, although with decreasing caliber since previous outside exam.The ventricles and sulci are within normal limits. The basal cisterns remain patent. There is no midline shift or mass effect. There are no areas of abnormal signal. There is no diffusion abnormality. No extra-axial fluid collection is identified.Normal flow-voids are demonstrated in the major intracranial vascular structures. The midline structures and craniocervical junction are within normal limits. MRA Head: Images are severely degraded by inflow artifact. In addition, a rarely used high resolution sequence MRA of the whole head was utilized rather than the usual 3-D time-of-flight MRA given the history of AVM.There has been interval decrease in overall size of the AVM nidus within the posterior body of the left lateral ventricle. For example, this component of the AVM measured 1.5 x 2.2 cm in greatest axial dimensions, now measuring 1.1 x 1.7 cm. There is also overall decreased degree of flow related enhancement in the left posterior lateral thalamic component of the AVM. A small artery originating near the expected origin of the left PCOM is again seen coursing towards the left mesial temporal AVM nidus, although overall decrease flow related enhancement in this location as well. The left posterior cerebral artery remains asymmetrically enlarged.The intracranial internal carotid arteries are grossly normal in course and caliber, with poor flow related enhancement along the distal internal carotid arteries which likely is artifactual. The middle and anterior cerebral arteries are unremarkable. The vertebral arteries, basilar artery, and posterior cerebral arteries are otherwise grossly normal in course and caliber. There is no evidence of high-grade stenosis or large aneurysm.
1. Interval significant increased extent of perinidal vasogenic edema extending into the left internal and external capsules as well as the mesial left temporal lobe white matter, although overall nidal dimensions are clearly decreased. Findings may relate to interval change in venous drainage/thrombosis associated with the AVM and subsequent venous congestion.2. Suboptimal MRA secondary to technical factors, overall demonstrating decreased flow-related enhancing vessels in the area of the left posterior thalamic AVM extending to the mesial left temporal lobe.
