ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT A 56-year-old man with thoracal mass suspected of solitary plasmacytoma was referred for 18 F-FDG PET-CT scan. His PET-CT revealed FDG-avid rib mass and cervical lesion at level 2. He also underwent 18 F-fluorocholine (FCH) PET-CT to evaluate possible metastatic spread of the disease. FCH PET-CT showed increased uptake at the rib mass, while the cervical lesion was not FCH-avid. Biopsies confirmed rib lesion was a solitary plasmacytoma; however, the cervical lesion was an amyloid deposited lymph node. This case showed FCH PET-CT is a valuable companion of FDG scan for the evaluation of plasma cell dyscrasias with a better specificity.
