RESUMO
ABSTRACT: Breast cancer in men is a rare and unsuspected malignancy. A 48-year-old man begins with disabling low back pain. The CT scan reported a compression fracture in L2 and diffuse skeletal lesions suggestive of metastatic disease. The serum prostate-specific antigen was 6.2 ng/mL. He was referred for SPECT/CT with 99m Tc-EDDA/HYNIC-inhibitor prostate-specific membrane antigen due to clinical suspicion of prostate cancer. SPECT/CT with 99m Tc-EDDA/HYNIC-inhibitor prostate-specific membrane antigen showed a primary lesion in the left breast and multiple bone lesions. Biopsy confirmed infiltrating ductal carcinoma with positive hormone receptors and indeterminate HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2).

ABSTRACT: Bronchobiliary fistula (BBF) represents a rare disorder; it consists of abnormal interconnection between the biliary tract and bronchial trees. A 22-year-old woman with persistent chest pain, jaundice, and biliptysis was referred for hepatobiliary scintigraphy under clinical suspicion of a BBF. Patient medical history was consistent with biliary tree reconstruction secondary to an iatrogenic injury during cholecystectomy 4 years ago. Previous complementary studies (CT and MR cholangiopancreatography) were equivocal for diagnosis. Planar dynamic images of hepatobiliary scintigraphy in the first hour were inconclusive. A 24-hour SPECT/CT was performed and confirmed the BBF in a minimally invasive way.
