Abstract

Most malignant mesenchymal tumors of the lung are metastases of a primary tumor from elsewhere in the body. A primary pulmonary synovial sarcoma is a very rare neoplasm that accounts for approximately 10% of soft tissue sarcomas and makes up only 0.5% of all primary lung malignancies. We report a case of a primary pulmonary synovial sarcoma in a 60-year old woman. In this case, a lung metastasis was excluded using 18F-FDG PET /CT imaging.

저자들은 60세 여자환자에서 18F-FDG PET/CT를 사용하여 폐에서 원발한 것을 확인하고 조직학적 및 면역 조직 화학 염색상 단상성 섬유성 형태를 가진 원발성 폐활막 육종 1예를 경험하였기에 이를 문헌 고찰과 함께 보호하는 바이다.
