Intra-abdominal desmoplastic small round cell tumour: staging and surveillance with (18)F-FDG PET/CT following peritonectomy and HIPEC
Intra-abdominal desmoplastic small round cell tumours are rare aggressive tumours of mesothelial origin with less than 60 cases reported in the literature. They are difficult to treat and the role of (18)F-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET)/CT scan in their management has not been es...

description | Intra-abdominal desmoplastic small round cell tumours are rare aggressive tumours of mesothelial origin with less than 60 cases reported in the literature. They are difficult to treat and the role of (18)F-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET)/CT scan in their management has not been established. A 41-year-old male presented with a 21-cm desmoplastic small round cell tumour and was managed with radiotherapy, surgery and chemotherapy, with each treatment monitored and guided by (18)F-fludeoxyglucose PET/CT scan. We present the imaging findings of the serial PET/CT scans of this patient and their impact on management. |
