Spinal Metastasis Characterized on FDG PET/CT in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

abstract：:Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is a rare cutaneous tumor that is locally aggressive and has a high rate of recurrence after surgical excision. The tumor grows slowly, typically over years. On rare occasions, metastasis to distant sites (especially the lung) or regional lymph nodes may occur. Here, we present F-FDG PE...
