Fever of Unknown Origin: (18)F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography–Computed Tomography Showing Renal Cyst Infection in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease

Fever of unknown origin (FUO) is a convoluted clinical dilemma. It can be caused by infective, inflammatory, malignant, and other pathologies. The identification of etiopathogenesis is essential for instituting definitive management. (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography-...

description Fever of unknown origin (FUO) is a convoluted clinical dilemma. It can be caused by infective, inflammatory, malignant, and other pathologies. The identification of etiopathogenesis is essential for instituting definitive management. (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is now an integral part of FUO management. We present the case of a 60-year-old female with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), where the infected renal cyst was detected as the cause of FUO on(18)F-FDG PET-CT.
