    Title translation Findings of the (18)F-FDG PET-CT in a cardiac angiosarcoma complicated by a cardiac rupture.
    Abstract Primary malignant tumors of the heart are a rare condition. The most common type is the cardiac angiosarcoma. The symptoms of this disease are very nonspecific and can be very difficult to diagnose by conventional imaging techniques. We report the case of a male patient with cardiac angiosarcoma who also had a rare complication, this being cardiac rupture, which required the use of (18)F-FDG PET-CT to demonstrate the mass malignancy and to reach a definitive diagnosis.

    Abstract Aims: Impaired coronary microvascular dilatory function can lead to exercise induced myocardial ischemia and angina pectoris even in patients without significant (>50%) obstructive coronary atherosclerosis (APWOCA). Diffuse distal vessel epicardial spasm and microvascular spasm have been also proposed as a plausible explanation for angina at rest in these patients. However, objective systematic evidence for the latter i.e. echocardiographic wall motion abnormalities during angina, is lacking at present. Coronary epicardial and microvascular spasm can be triggered in susceptible patients by the administration of intracoronary acetylcholine (Ach). We sought to assess whether Ach induced diffuse distal epicardial coronary artery spasm (≥75% diameter reduction) and coronary microvascular spasm can cause transient ischemic left ventricular dysfunction, as assessed by echocardiography.
    Methods: 50 patients (19 men aged 60.5 ± 8.9 years) with stable APWOCA were assessed for coronary spasm and myocardial ischemia with intracoronary Ach infusion, 2D transthoracic echocardiography (before and during Ach testing), continuous 12-lead ECG monitoring, and ultrasensitive cardiac troponin (US-cTn) measurement before and within 4 h after Ach testing.
    Results: 14 patients (28%) had a "negative" Ach test, 14 (28%) developed coronary microvascular spasm and 17 (34%) had diffuse distal epicardial spasm. In 5 patients (10%) the test was inconclusive. Echocardiographic variables including deceleration time, EF slope and E/A, as well as ultrasensitive-cTn concentrations were abnormal during Ach induced ischemic ECG changes.
    Conclusions: We have, for the first time, demonstrated that Ach induced coronary microvascular spasm is associated with echocardiographic changes and ultrasensitive-cTn elevations, indicative of myocardial ischemia.

    Title translation Positron emission tomography with fluordesoxyglucose-F18 in follow-up of endometrial cancer.
    Abstract Objective: To assess the utility of FDG-PET in the follow-up of patients treated for endometrial cancer and with suspicion of recurrence according to conventional imaging methods (CT, MRI) and/or elevation of serum tumour markers.
    Materials and methods: Between April 2002 and December 2005, eleven patients underwent 17 FDG-PET studies (six with 2 studies); mean age was 63.4 yrs (range, 52-69 yrs) and time since diagnosis ranged from 11 months to 12 yrs (mean of 56 months). Initially, seven patients were in stage I, three in stage III and one in stage IV (FIGO classification). Histologically, they corresponded to 8 endometrioid carcinomas and 3 non endometrioid carcinomas.
    Results: FDG-PET showed infradiaphragmatic uptake in 3 patients and disseminated disease in 7 cases. FDG-PET showed no uptake in one patient. CT (n = 7) or MRI (n = 7) detected infradiaphragmatic lesions in 5 patients and visceral lesions in 2. In 11 patients, tumour markers were elevated (CA125, n = 9; CA19.9, n = 2; CA15.3, n = 2). In 7 patients, FDG-PET modified the information yielded by conventional imaging techniques and in 4 patients, the FDG-PET contributed no additional information. In 2 patients, histologic confirmation of the lesions was obtained and in 9 patients, there were clinical follow-up (from 3 to 20 months, mean of 8.7 months) and imaging studies.
    Conclusions: FDG-PET is superior to CT and MRI for detecting recurrences in the follow-up of patients with endometrial cancer.

    Title translation Progressive myositis ossificans. Utility of bone scintigraphy.
    Abstract 47 year old woman affected by myositis ossificans, with muscular calcifications in her evolution. Bone scintigraphy showed increased polyfocal activity as well as uptake of different intensity in soft tissues. The bone scintigraphy allows for early identification of ossification areas in soft tissues, as it can even detect injuries earlier than that observed with other image techniques. It is considered to be very useful in the diagnosis and establishment of the extension of the process, as well as follow-up.

    Title translation Diagnosis of renovascular hypertension by pre- and post-captopril renal scintigraphy with 99mTc-DMSA.
    Abstract Aim: Value the utility of studies with 99mTc-DMSA with captopril (scintigraphy imaging and unilateral renal function) in identifying renovascular disease or renal disease in hypertension patients with high probability of renovascular hypertension.
    Methods: We studied 27 hypertension patients (12 males, 15 females) mean age 49 years, SD: 9.46, with high probability of renovascular disease. General analysis and radiology was made to all of them including renal arteriography as gold standard. Two renal scintigraphies with 99mTc-DMSA were made to all of them, baseline study and one hour after administration of 50 mg of captopril, a week between both studies. Renal scintigraphy (anterior and posterior images) was obtained 4 hours after the administration of 111 MBq (3 mCi) of 99mTc-DMSA and results were evaluated quantitatively and qualitatively calculating unilateral renal function. We considered positive for renovascular hypertension studies with decrease of more than five percentual points in unilateral renal function or a new defect absent in baseline study. Scintigraphic results were compared with arteriography to determine sensitivity, specificity and predictive values.
    Results: Arteriography demonstrated significant renal artery stenosis in 18.5% of patients. Renal scintigraphy with captopril using 99mTc-DMSA demonstrated sensitivity of 60%, specificity of 91%, positive predictive value of 60% and negative predictive value of 91%. We identified 3 patients with segmental defects of uptake consistent with chronic pyelonephritis scarring.
    Conclusions: Studies with 99mTc-DMSA using captopril present high specificity and are useful in patients with high probability for renovascular hypertension, identifying high number of patients with significant renal artery stenosis. The utility of DMSA in identify renal abnormalities, as specially pyelonephritis scarring, add value to renal studies with captopril using others tracers. DMSA could identify renal etiologies of renovascular hypertension different to renal artery stenosis.
