False positive metastatic disease due to combined thoracic and subcutaneous splenosis.
Radiology Case Reports 2024 March
A 56-year-old man presented with dyspnea secondary to pulmonary emboli and dilated cardiomyopathy. His past medical history included a history of emergency laparotomy, splenectomy, and splenic flexure resection following a gunshot injury 30 years ago. CT and MRI imaging demonstrated multiple homogeneously enhancing lobulated lesions at the left-sided pleura and chest wall with an irregular calcified spleen. The aforementioned lesions demonstrated a similar level of tracer uptake to the splenic activity with no evidence of other FDG avid malignancy on the follow-up 18 F-FDG PET study. All the above-mentioned pleural and chest wall lesions demonstrated intense tracer accumulation on technetium-99m labeled heat-damaged red cell scintigraphy, consistent with combined thoracic and subcutaneous splenosis.
