The Role of a Bone SPECT/CT Scan in the Follow-up of a Solitary Bone Lesion in a Patient with Langerhans’ Cell Histiocytosis
Öz: Langerhans’ cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disease observed in childhood characterized by the proliferation of Langerhans’ cells resulting in
focal or systemic manifestations (including the bones). Here, we present a pediatric case with a localized biopsy-proven LCH, who underwent
progression from solitary to multifocal form detected on bone scintigraphy and single photon emission computerized tomography/computed
tomography (SPECT/CT) performed within four months. Emphasizing on localized bone pain (predictive of osseous LCH) and local tenderness
and swelling usually guides the nuclear physician to perform additional SPECT/CT with presumably an improvement of the diagnostic accuracy as
demonstrated in our case
Anahtar Kelime: Langerhans Hücreli Histiyositoz Tanılı Hastada Soliter Kemik Lezyonunun TakibindeKemik Sintigrafi ve SPECT/BT’nin Rolü
Öz: Langerhans hücreli histiyositoz (LHH), genellikle çocukluk çağında görülen, Langerhans hücrelerinin çoğalmasıyla birlikte kemikler de dahil olmak
üzere lokal veya sistemik tutulum ile seyreden nadir bir hastalıktır. Burada, soliter olup dört ay sonra yapılan kemik sintigrafisi ve tek foton
emisyon tomografisi/bilgisayarlı tomografide (SPECT/BT) multifokal forma ilerlediği saptanan, biyopsi ile kanıtlanmış LHH tanılı pediatrik bir olgu
sunulmaktadır. Bu olguda görülmektedir ki; lokalize kemik ağrısı şikayeti olan ve/veya fizik muayenede lokal hassasiyet ve şişme gibi bulguları olan
hastalarda, ilgili alanın ek SPECT/BT görüntülerinin alınması ile tanısal doğrulukta iyileşme sağlamaktadır.
