ABSTRACT
We present the FDG PET-CT findings in a patient with persistent pain 7 weeks after a nephrectomy and lymph node dissection for a sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma. Although conventional imaging was unable to detect evidence of metastatic spread outside the para-aortic nodes, a PET-CT scan showed unexpected extensive dissemination. Currently, there are no reports in the literature of the PET-CT findings in sarcomatoid renal cell carcinomas.
