(18)F-FDG PET/MRI Image of Skin Metastasis of Ovarian Cancer

Ovarian cancer is one of the deadliest tumors among women. It mostly metastasizes to the liver, pleura, lungs, and bones. We present a sixty-six-year-old patient with skin lesions. The patient who underwent biopsy due to skin lesions was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)...

Sumario:Ovarian cancer is one of the deadliest tumors among women. It mostly metastasizes to the liver, pleura, lungs, and bones. We present a sixty-six-year-old patient with skin lesions. The patient who underwent biopsy due to skin lesions was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) performed for metastasis search shows widespread skin involvement, especially in the lower abdomen and legs. Skin involvement it ovarian cancer can be rarely seen, and in this article we would like to share (18)F-FDG PET/MRI of skin involvement in ovarian cancer.
