Abstract
A 51-year-old man was diagnosed with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) with brain, left adrenal gland, and pancreas metastases. On evaluation of treatment response after chemotherapy and radiation therapy, F-18 FDG PET/CT showed focal FDG uptake in the periappendiceal area with thickened appendiceal wall and inflammatory change. Laparoscopic appendectomy was done, and the findings were consistent with acute suppurative appendicitis with involvement of 2 small masses on the appendiceal body and tip. Histopathologic findings confirmed metastatic small cell carcinoma, involving submucosa, proper muscle, and periappendiceal fat. This is a case of appendiceal metastasis from small cell lung cancer detected on F-18 FDG PET/CT.
