Dyke-Davidoff-Masson Syndrome With Cerebral Hypometabolism and Unique Crossed Cerebellar Diaschisis in 18F-FDG PET/CT.

abstract：:A 74-year-old man underwent excisional biopsy of an anterior mediastinal mass that revealed squamous cell carcinoma of thymic origin. Immunohistochemistry revealed insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor positivity, which has been associated with worse prognosis. Restaging FDG PET/CT revealed extensive soft tissue and o...
