Diffuse FDG Uptake Due to Fat Necrosis Following Transverse Rectus Abdominus Myocutaneous (TRAM) Flap Reconstruction

ABSTRACTWe report a case of a 57-year-old female patient with right breast invasive ductal carcinoma. Bilateral mastectomy and TRAM flap reconstructions were performed. Postoperatively, a palpable focus was identified within the left breast. PET/CT showed hypermetabolism throughout the reconstructed...

description ABSTRACTWe report a case of a 57-year-old female patient with right breast invasive ductal carcinoma. Bilateral mastectomy and TRAM flap reconstructions were performed. Postoperatively, a palpable focus was identified within the left breast. PET/CT showed hypermetabolism throughout the reconstructed left breast, correlating with mixed fat attenuation and inflammatory soft tissue. MRI showed extensive fat necrosis/oil cyst formation in the left breast. As a TRAM flap reconstruction with fat-rich tissue can be damaged intraoperatively due to surgical manipulation, abnormal FDG uptake in this setting is more likely related to fat necrosis than recurrent tumor.
