The Role of FDG PET in Diabetic Myonecrosis: A Rare and Underrecognized Complication of Diabetes.
Clinical Nuclear Medicine 2018 Februrary
A 66-year-old man with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes was admitted for acute bilateral calf pain in the context of coronary artery disease, chronic renal failure, and peripheral neuropathy. Lower-extremity Doppler ultrasound excluded deep vein thrombosis. FDG-PET was performed to exclude a suspected infection because of elevated white blood cells and inflammatory markers but normal creatinine kinase levels. PET scan demonstrated intense bilateral calf muscle and left thigh muscle uptake, which in combination with the patient's history was consistent with diabetic myonecrosis, a rare end-stage complication of diabetes. The patient was managed conservatively, and pain resolved following a typical self-limited course.
