Fluorine-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT Images of Hidradenitis Suppurativa Mimicking Metastasis in a Patient With Small Cell Lung Carcinoma

A 54-year-old male patient with metastatic small cell lung carcinoma received chemotherapy and in follow-up he was referred to positron emission tomography (PET)/CT scan for re-staging. In addition to the primary disease, increased Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18 FDG) uptake was detected in ski...

description A 54-year-old male patient with metastatic small cell lung carcinoma received chemotherapy and in follow-up he was referred to positron emission tomography (PET)/CT scan for re-staging. In addition to the primary disease, increased Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18 FDG) uptake was detected in skin and subcutaneous fat tissue in the axillary, periscrotal, and perianal regions, which was later proven as hidradenitis suppurativa in PET/CT images.
