Popis: | International audience; Baseline F-FDG PET and MRI were performed in a patient with IgG4-related hypophysitis, showing a 15-mm hypervascular hypermetabolic lesion with sellar and suprasellar extension. Lack of response after 10 months of first-line corticosteroid therapy was demonstrated on both F-FDG PET and MRI. Three months later, after 2 injections of 1 g of rituximab associated with continued corticosteroid therapy, MRI showed substantial shrinkage of the pituitary lesion with minimal residual Gd enhancement, whereas F-FDG PET evidenced complete metabolic response. As such, joint F-FDG PET and MRI assessment during therapy may have a potential interest for treatment response evaluation in pituitary IgG4-related disease. |
