Bilateral Renal Involvement in Mantle Cell Lymphoma on FDG PET/CT

Clin Nucl Med. 2016 Apr;41(4):e206-7. doi: 10.1097/RLU.0000000000001104.

Abstract

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare aggressive lymphoid neoplasm occurring in approximately 3% to 10% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Renal involvement is rarely reported in case of MCL. We hereby described a case of MCL in a 76-year-old man in whom bilateral renal involvement was detected on FDG PET/CT. The patient underwent chemotherapy, and follow-up PET/CT reveals resolution of the renal lesions.
