“…Among the previously published cases that reported coexistence of PDB and metastatic bone disease, the primary sites of malignancy were the breast, lung, and prostate. [18][19][20][21] In our patient, the final diagnosis of metastatic bone disease secondary to adenocarcinoma of the lung was found after PDB was diagnosed by bone biopsy. As illustrated in the case, three modalities, including radiography, bone biopsy and 18 F-FDG PET/CT were utilized in the diagnostic process.…”
