Foreign-body granuloma mimicking post-chemotherapy residual seminoma: A case of true-negative findings using diffusion-weighted whole-body magnetic resonance imaging with background suppression

Diffusion-weighted whole-body magnetic resonance imaging with background suppression (DWIBS) is increasingly used in cancer imaging. However, little is known about its usefulness in the management of metastatic seminoma, in which evaluation of the viability of postchemotherapy residual nodules is pi...

description Diffusion-weighted whole-body magnetic resonance imaging with background suppression (DWIBS) is increasingly used in cancer imaging. However, little is known about its usefulness in the management of metastatic seminoma, in which evaluation of the viability of postchemotherapy residual nodules is pivotal. To date, 2–18fluoro-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) has been recommended for post-chemotherapeutic assessment. We describe a case of metastatic seminoma in a 27-year-old man in which the viability of post-chemotherapy residual nodules tested false-positive on FDG-PET, but true-negative on DWIBS. DWIBS may be a good alternative technique to evaluate post-chemotherapy seminoma, although further studies are required to determine its usefulness.
