Lung Mass Appearing as a Dilated Left Ventricle on Tc-99m Tetrofosmin Myocardial Perfusion Scintigraphy
Clinical Nuclear Medicine , 10/07/09

Gnanasegaran G et al. – The myocardial perfusion scan revealed a large cavitated lesion mimicking a dilated left ventricle and the CT scan revealed a large mass in the left lung with central necrosis displacing the heart and mediastinum. The patient underwent thoracotomy with resection of the mass and the histology confirmed atypical carcinoid. This case highlights noncardiac uptake of Tc–99m tetrofosmin in an atypical carcinoid.
