Article Abstract
This retrospective study was conducted to evaluate the frequency of PET superscan in baseline staging scans of lymphoma patients.The study was conducted at the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital, Lahore, from October 1, 2018 to August 31, 2019. A retrospective review of baseline PET-CT scans of 203 lymphoma patients, performed during the period of October 1, 2017 to August31,2018, was done from the institutional database. Out of these 203 patients, PET superscan pattern was observed in 13 (6.4%) patients, 08 (61.5%) males and 05 (38.5%) females. Eight (61.5%) patients had Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, while 05 (38.5%)had Hodgkin's lymphoma. Based on TNM staging 10 (76.9%) patients had stage IV disease, 01 (07.6%) had stage III disease, and 2 (15.4%) had stage II disease. PET-CT superscan pattern is uncommon and is not dependent on the stage of the disease. It should be recognised in clinical practice as it suggests a poor prognosis.

Objectives: The 9th edition of the Tumor, Node, Metastasis (TNM-9) lung cancer classification is set to replace the 8th edition (TNM-8) starting in 2025. Key updates include the splitting of the mediastinal nodal category N2 into single- and multiple-station involvement, as well as the classification of multiple extrathoracic metastatic lesions as involving a single organ system (M1c1) or multiple organ systems (M1c2). This study aimed to assess how the TNM-9 revisions affect the final staging of lung cancer patients and how these changes correlate with overall survival (OS).
