- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 26-year-old woman who was referred to a hospital for a 10-day history of dull pain in her left knee. The patient had been attending hemodialysis, and 99mTc-MDP bone SPECT showed hypermetabolic spots on the left distal femur and ankle. Computed tomography (CT) three-dimensional reconstruction and contrast enhanced Magnetic resonance imaging revealed it was an osteolytic lesion and soft-tissue mass in the distal femur, and a brown tumor was diagnosed.
