Abstract: Lupus enteritis is classified into the colon poly-ulcerative type and the small intestine ischemic serositis type. Colon poly-ulcerative lupus enteritis is a disease that is mainly due to mesenteric arteritis. In recent years, 18F-FDG PET/CT has been frequently used to assess the extent of the disease in patients with systemic vasculitis. We present the case report of 18F-FDG PET/CT results in a 57-year-old woman with colon poly-ulcerative lupus enteritis.

Systemic lupus erythematosus is a systemic autoimmune disease associated with various manifestations. Here, we report a compelling case of a 42-year-old woman who presented with lupus enteritis as a sole manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus and underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT. The resected bowel segment revealed vasculitis, and subsequent workup revealed positive antinuclear and anti–double-stranded antibody levels, confirming lupus enteritis, thus highlighting the diagnostic role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in reaching the final diagnosis.

A 78-year-old woman was diagnosed having unresectable tongue cancer 6 months ago, for which she received radiation therapy. She was on enteral nutrition for more than 2 months due to dysphagia and underwent an 18F-FDG PET/CT for restaging. The images showed uptake in a left cervical node. In addition, there was a focal uptake in the descending colon corresponding to a foreign body in its anterior wall, which was removed by colonoscopy.
