“…Our results are almost identical to those of Biyi A D et al [39] (22), who noted a strong axial predominance in 80% of cases. The study by Paycha et al [7] Open Journal of Medical Imaging found metastases in the dorsolumbar spine in 50%, the costal gril in 20%, the pelvic girdle in 15% and the sternum in 10%.…”

Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide, accounting for an estimated 22% of all female cancers. It is the leading cause of cancer mortality in women, almost all of which is due to metastases, with 73% of metastases occurring in the bone. In oncology, metastable technetium 99-labelled methylene bisphosphonate bone scintigraphy (BS) remains the standard examination for detecting and assessing the extent of bone metastases. The aim of this study was to assess the role of BS in the evaluation and follow-up of breast cancer in Senegal. Methodology: This was a retrospective study of breast cancer patients who underwent bone scintigraphy with 99m Tc-HMDP in the nuclear medicine department of Idrissa Pouye General Hospital (IPGHO), from July 2009 to June 2022. Results: We enrolled 165 patients, mean age 46.79 years (27 -87 years). BS was performed in 94.37% of cases for post-therapeutic monitoring and in 5.63% for pre-therapeutic assessment. Results were contributory in 131 patients (92.25%), of whom 72 cases (50.70%) were normal and 59 cases (41.55%) positive or presenting bone metastases; and non-contributory or doubtful in 11 cases (7.75%). Secondary bone locations were multiple in 57 cases (96.61%) and single or solitary in 2 cases (3.

Iodine 131 in the treatment of well differentiated carcinoma of the thyroid metastases

Abstract: or bone metastases proves to be more favourable than the vesicular type (63.75 versus 25%). The analgesic effect was spectacular on painful bone metastases. These results are discussed in light of recent data of molecular and radiobiology.
