Scintigraphic findings of MALT lymphoma of the thyroid.
Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma has been established as a distinct entity among non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, and the most common primary site is the stomach. We describe scintigraphic findings in a patient with MALT lymphoma of the thyroid. A 71-year-old woman with Hashimoto's thyroiditis suffered from rapid cervical swelling, and ultrasonography and CT revealed a thyroid nodule. The nodule showed accumulation of 99mTc pertechnetate comparable to the surrounding thyroid tissue, mimicking a benign nodule. Both 67Ga and 201Tl imaging visualized the lesion as an increased uptake area. After radiotherapy, abnormally increased uptake disappeared on 67Ga images, which predicted a favorable outcome. MALT lymphoma of the thyroid may be visualized as a warm nodule on 99mTc pertechnetate scintigraphy.
