Abstract |
The present study was purposed to evaluate the
incidence and the characteristics of metastatic "cold"
lesions in Tc-99m-MDP bone scans of adult patients with
solid malignancies. There were 29 cold lesions in 24
patients. The incidence of cold lesions was about 1% of
total cases of bone scans for the patients with
malignancy, or 2.5% of cases with bone metastases, The
primary sites of malignancies were lung (four cases),
uterine cervix (three cases), kidney, nasopharynx,
thyroid, urinary bladder, prostate, lymphoma(two cases
each other), liver, breast and others (one case each
other). But the relative incidence of cold lesion in
lung cancer and breast cancer was low. The most
frequent site of cold lesion was spine and pelvis,
skull and rib were followed. The incidence of cold
lesion was related to the regional incidence of bone
metastases. The size of the cold lesions was greater
than that of the hot. There were six cases of single
cold lesion without any other abnormalities and two
cases of cold lesion which were initially hot. So it
should be considered that bone metastases might be
presented as cold lesions in bone scan. |
