Pleomorphic spindle cell sarcoma (PSCS) (formerly known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma, MFH) of the spleen, mimics an atypical haemangioma on 99mTc-RBC, CT and Ultrasound: staging with 18F-FDG PET/CT

Pleomorphic spindle cell sarcoma (PSCS) (formerly known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma, MFH) of the spleen, mimics an atypical haemangioma on 99mTc-RBC, CT and Ultrasound: staging with 18F-FDG PET/CT

A 63-year-old male was found to have a 7.5-cm splenic mass that had imaging appearances of an atypical haemangioma on CT, ultrasound and a 99m Tc-RBC scan, and he was followed conservatively with serial ultrasounds. Sixteen months later, however, the splenic lesion grew and he developed numerous new...

description A 63-year-old male was found to have a 7.5-cm splenic mass that had imaging appearances of an atypical haemangioma on CT, ultrasound and a 99m Tc-RBC scan, and he was followed conservatively with serial ultrasounds. Sixteen months later, however, the splenic lesion grew and he developed numerous new liver masses which were biopsy confirmed to be a pleomorphic spindle cell sarcoma (PSCS), formerly known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH). A staging 18 F-FDG PET/CT was performed and showed innumerable, mostly necrotic hepatic and splenic masses. The patient passed away a few days after the PET/CT, before a treatment program could be implemented. The use of 18 F-FDG PET/CT in the staging of splenic PSCS has not been previously described. We present the 99m Tc-RBC and 18 F-FDG PET/CT image characteristics of a patient with splenic PSCS.
