Adult Pancreatoblastoma With Liver Metastasis Diagnosed by 18F-FDG PET/CT and 2 Years' Postoperative Follow-up.

ABSTRACT

Pancreatoblastoma is an extremely rare malignant tumor of the pancreas. Most patients are infants and children; however, a few cases have been reported in adults. Herein, we present the case of a 49-year-old man with pancreatoblastoma and liver metastasis who underwent preoperative multimodal imaging, in which F-FDG PET/CT showed a markedly increased F-FDG uptake in the metastatic lesion and a slightly increased uptake in the primary lesion. Subsequently, the patient underwent complete resection of the primary and metastatic lesions. No recurrences or metastases were found in 2 years of follow-up.
