Granulosa cell tumor of the ovary with high FDG uptake.

Granulosa cell tumor (GCT) of the ovary is a rare tumor accounting for 2%-5% of ovarian malignancies. Although the usefulness of 18F-FDG PET/CT is well demonstrated in the staging and follow-up of the great majority of ovarian cancers, GCTs are known to cause false-negative results on FDG PET because of very low FDG avidity. We present a case of a GCT in which an 18F-FDG PET/CT proved very useful in the detection of recurrence.

18F-fluoride PET/CT aspect of an unusual case of Erdheim-Chester disease with histologic features of Langerhans cell histiocytosis.

We report the case of a 63-year-old woman with Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) and histologic features of Langerhans cell histiocytosis, both extremely rare histiocytic proliferations responsible of skeletal and extraskeletal involvement. 18F-Fluoride PET/CT revealed multiple intense focal uptake scattered throughout the skeleton. We also performed an 18F-FDG PET/CT which point out visceral and vascular involvement.
