摘要
FDG PET/CT scan is a diagnostic imaging modality for oncologic patients, but with false-positive findings in inflammatory diseases. In this interesting case, we present a 24-year-old woman with history of giant cell tumor of the bone (lumbar vertebrae) who underwent whole-body FDG PET/CT scan for treatment response evaluation. FDG PET/CT scan demonstrated a large hypermetabolic tumoral mass lesion in segment VI/VII of the right hepatic lobe. A range of malignant versus benign lesions should be considered as differential diagnoses, including metastasis, primary cholangiocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, focal nodular hyperplasia, and infection. Final diagnosis of "steatotic hepatitis" after CT-guided biopsy was established.
