Isolated bilateral metastatic mass of malignant melanoma as shown by F-18 Fluorodeoxyglocose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography
Abstract
Melanoma of unknown primary is the diagnostic challenge as well as is associated with poor prognosis for the patient. We present a 79 years old male patient who was presented with hypermetabolic adrenal mass lesions. The biopsy results shown metastatic malignant melanoma.
