Various forms of 18F-FDG PET and PET/CT findings in patients with polymyalgia rheumatica

Original language description

Aim: Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is a disease presenting with pain and stiffness, mainly in shoulders, hip joints and neck. Laboratory markers of inflammation may bolster diagnosis. PMR afflicts patients over 50 years old, predominantly women, and may also accompany giant cell arteritis. Patients and Methods: 67 patients, who fullfiled Healey's criteria for PMR in the period between 2004 and 2013 and had positive FDG PET (PET/CT) findings were retrospectively evaluated. FDG uptake was assessed in largearteries, proximal joints (shoulders, hips and sternoclavicular joints), in extraarticular synovial structures (interspinous, ischiogluteal and praepubic bursae). Results: Articular/periarticular involvement (A) was detected in 59/67 (88.1%) patients and extrarticular synovial involvement (E) in 51/67 (76.1%) patients either individually or in combinations. Vascular involvement (V) was detected in 27/67 (40.3%) patients only in combination with articular (A) and/or extraarticular synovi
