Incidental endometrial cancer detected on FDG PET/CT imaging for melanoma.
Radiology Case Reports 2024 July
This case report follows a 66-year-old female who originally presented with malignant melanoma in the left knee and recurrence in the left inguinal region. This prompted a whole body FDG PET/CT scan which showed incidental focal hypermetabolism in the uterus. The diagnosis of endometrial cancer was confirmed at biopsy, and the patient was treated with total abdominal hysterectomy. Melanoma patients are at increased risk of second primary malignancy, and endometrial cancer is a common second primary often diagnosed in cancer survivors. Incidental endometrial focal hypermetabolism should be investigated further for a synchronous malignancy, especially in a post-menopausal woman.
