Calcified Adrenal Metastasis of High-Grade Osteosarcoma on FDG PET/CT

Abstract: Classic type of high-grade osteosarcoma is the most common type of skeletal malignancy in children and adolescents. Metastasis of osteosarcoma frequently occurs in the lung. Adrenal metastasis of osteosarcoma is extremely rare, with only few reported case in the literature. Herein, we present the case of a 13-year-old boy with adrenal metastasis of high-grade osteosarcoma, which was seen as a solitary calcified hypermetabolic adrenal lesion on FDG PET/CT.

“…Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most prevalent primary bone malignant tumor in children and adolescents [ 1 ], characterized by high rate of metastasis and poor prognosis [ 2 , 3 ]. The annual incidence of OS is approximately 0.0004–0.0005% [ 4 ], which has been increasing at an annual rate of 1.4% in the past decade [ 5 ].…”
