Unilateral upper extremity lymphedema in metastatic prostate cancer.

Upper extremity lymphedema and cutaneous spread are atypical behavior of prostate disease and should be kept in the differential for selected patients. This presentation in these patients may be underdiagnosed and potentially an ominous sign. Our case adds to our continued learning of possible prostate malignancy behavior.

18F-FDG PET-CT: predicting recurrence in patients following percutaneous cryoablation treatment for stage I primary non-small-cell lung cancer.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to understand the imaging features of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) PET-computed tomography (CT) in postcryoablation lung cancer patients that could help predict recurrence.

Methods: We identified 28 patients with 30 lesions treated by means of percutaneous cryoablation for stage I non-small-cell lung cancer. Two experienced nuclear radiologists blindly reviewed baseline images and follow-up (18)F-FDG PET-CT scans for a minimum of 24 months, with discrepancy in interpretation resolved by consensus.
