PET/CT Examination Report Radiopharmaceutical: 18F-FDG Administration: Intravenous injection Examined regions: Whole body + brain Examination date: July 26, 2022 Fasting blood glucose: 4.1 mmol/L Clinical diagnosis: Elevated TM Brief medical history: Foamy urine for 10 years, fatigue and decreased appetite for 1 month. Admitted to the nephrology department on July 22. CYFRA21-1 was 3.98, squamous cell carcinoma antigen 5.04. Abdominal CT showed left kidney atrophy, compensatory enlargement of the right kidney, multiple stones and possible cysts in the right kidney, possible small bowel obstruction, multiple enlarged retroperitoneal and bilateral inguinal lymph nodes. Chest CT revealed scattered nodular opacities in both lungs, some ground-glass opacities. PET/CT was performed to rule out tumor. Imaging findings: After fasting, the radiopharmaceutical was injected intravenously, followed by static acquisition of whole-body and brain PET/CT images. Image quality was clear. The bilateral thoracic cavities were symmetrical with a midline trachea. Lung markings were clear. A cystic lucency was noted in the left upper lobe. A small nodule measuring approximately 6 × 4 mm was seen in the right middle lobe, with FDG uptake slightly higher than background lung tissue (SUVmax = 0.7). Additional scattered nodular shadows and some ground-glass densities were present in both lungs, along with fibrotic strands; FDG uptake was not significantly abnormal. Lymph nodes were visible in the mediastinum (para-aortic, paracaval, subcarinal, and bilateral hilar regions) with increased FDG uptake (SUVmax 2.5–3.2). Both kidneys were in normal position. The left kidney was atrophic; the right kidney was relatively enlarged and contained multiple cystic or slightly hyperdense nodules with clear borders and photopenic FDG uptake. Multiple dense shadows were seen in the renal pelvis. FDG uptake in the renal parenchyma was physiologically decreased. The gallbladder was normal in shape with mild wall thickening and no significant FDG uptake. The pancreas was atrophic with no significant FDG uptake. Increased FDG uptake (SUVmax 5.3–8.6) was noted in portions of the small bowel in the right abdomen, hepatic flexure, descending colon, sigmoid colon, and rectum; CT showed no obvious bowel wall thickening. Multiple small para-aortic lymph nodes showed no significant FDG abnormality. Multiple lymph nodes were present in the bilateral inguinal regions, some enlarged (largest on the left measuring approximately 18 mm) with mildly increased FDG uptake (SUVmax 2.0). Pelvic fluid collection was present. The prostate was enlarged with no abnormal FDG uptake within the gland. Subcutaneous fat planes in the back, abdomen, pelvis, and bilateral lower limbs were blurred with multiple linear shadows and no significant FDG abnormality. Patchy increased FDG uptake was seen around the right shoulder joint muscles (SUVmax 3.3). The nasopharynx, parotid and submandibular glands were unremarkable. The thyroid lobes were normal in size and density with no abnormal FDG uptake. Physiologic FDG uptake was present in the tonsils and pharynx. The trachea was midline. Bilateral piriform sinuses were symmetrical. No enlarged cervical lymph nodes or abnormal FDG uptake. No pleural thickening or effusion. No significant physiologic cardiac FDG uptake. The stomach was well distended with no wall thickening or abnormal FDG uptake. The liver, spleen, and adrenal glands were normal. Physiologic FDG uptake was seen in the liver, pancreas, and spleen. No enlarged iliac lymph nodes. Physiologic FDG uptake in the ureters and bladder. No abnormal FDG uptake in the skeleton. Multiple small patchy low-density shadows were present in the bilateral basal ganglia with no significant FDG abnormality. No other intracranial abnormal high- or low-density lesions. Ventricles, sulci, and cisterns were prominent consistent with age-related changes. Midline structures were not shifted. Cortical radiotracer distribution was symmetrical. No abnormal uptake or defects in the frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital, insular, or cingulate regions. Thalami and cerebellar hemispheres showed symmetrical distribution. Examination conclusions: 1. Small nodule in the right middle lobe with mildly increased FDG uptake; close follow-up recommended. Scattered nodular and ground-glass opacities in both lungs; follow-up recommended. Fibrotic strands in both lungs. Pulmonary bulla in the left upper lobe.

Special Examinations and Consultations April 13 Thyroid ultrasound: Left lobe nodule (TI-RADS 3), right lobe normal. April 13 Abdominal ultrasound: Right kidney cyst and stone, gallbladder cholesterol crystals, prostatic hyperplasia with calcification. April 13 Vascular ultrasound: Left vertebral artery occlusion, right vertebral artery increased resistance index, bilateral carotid plaques. Lower limb arteries and veins: plaques but patent flow. April 13 Echocardiogram: LVEF 67%, mild septal hypertrophy, mild mitral and aortic regurgitation, focal aortic valve calcification. April 10 ECG: Sinus bradycardia, complete right bundle branch block, left anterior fascicular block. April 10 Pulmonary function: Normal ventilation, mild diffusion impairment, increased residual volume. April 10 Nephrology consultation: Recommended low-salt, low-purine, high-quality protein diet; switch benzbromarone to febuxostat; add sodium bicarbonate and potassium citrate; monitor renal function. April 13 Vascular surgery consultation: Vertebral artery occlusion – start clopidogrel 50 mg daily. Treatment Course After admission, the patient underwent comprehensive evaluation. Treatment included rest, oxygen saturation monitoring, expectorants and mucolytics (ambroxol, acetylcysteine nebulization), bronchodilators (salbutamol, tiotropium nebulization), uric acid-lowering agents (benzbromarone, sodium bicarbonate, febuxostat), renal protection (compound α-keto acid, Shen Shuai Ning), potassium supplementation, anticoagulation (dalteparin), blood pressure control (furosemide, spironolactone), iron supplementation, and antiplatelet therapy (clopidogrel). Given the right lung lesions, infection was considered most likely, but tumor could not be excluded. Because of significant comorbidities and relative bradycardia, the family declined bronchoscopy and PET-CT after discussion of risks. They were informed of the possibility of missed diagnosis or delayed treatment and expressed understanding. After treatment, the patient’s condition improved, and he was discharged with approval from the attending physician. Comorbidities None listed. Discharge Status No fever, no cough or sputum, normal bowel and bladder function, good appetite, sound sleep. Physical examination: Alert, comfortable breathing, BP 135/80 mmHg, coarse breath sounds without rales, HR 60/min regular, no lower limb edema, SpO₂ 97% on room air. Discharge Instructions 1. Follow-up with respiratory clinic; repeat chest CT in 1 month. 2. Discharge medications: Compound α-keto acid 4 tablets three times daily with meals Shen Shuai Ning 4 capsules three times daily Sodium bicarbonate 1 tablet three times daily Febuxostat half tablet once daily Clopidogrel 50 mg (2 × 25 mg) once daily 3. Regular renal function monitoring and nephrology follow-up. 4. Await lung cancer autoantibody results (call in 1 week). 5. Monitor blood pressure and cardiology follow-up. Regular thyroid function checks and endocrinology follow-up. 6. Elevated tumor markers (CEA, SCC, CA50, ProGRP) – repeat as needed and consider PET-CT. 7. Regular carotid and vertebral artery ultrasound and vascular surgery follow-up. Treatment Outcome Improved. Rehabilitation Guidance and Health Education 1. Rest adequately, avoid catching cold during seasonal changes, keep warm, eat a balanced diet, and exercise to strengthen immunity. 2. Avoid overexertion; stay away from crowded places during flu season and treat upper respiratory infections promptly.
