18F-FDG PET/CT Imaging of G-CSF-Producing Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma

Clin Nucl Med. 2022 Jan 1;47(1):e98-e100. doi: 10.1097/RLU.0000000000003783.

Abstract

Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-producing tumors are malignant tumors associated with a poor prognosis, and G-CSF-producing liposarcoma is particularly rare. We report a case of G-CSF-producing dedifferentiated liposarcoma. 18F-FDG PET/CT showed abnormal 18F-FDG uptake throughout the bone marrow and in the primary site. When a diffuse bone marrow 18F-FDG uptake was observed on 18F-FDG PET/CT, G-CSF-producing dedifferentiated liposarcoma should be included in the differential diagnosis.
