Enhanced CT and FDG PET/CT in Primary Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor of the Uterine Cervix

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor of the uterine cervix is extremely rare. A 45-year-old woman presented with intermittent vaginal bleeding for 1 month. Enhanced CT in the arterial and venous phases showed a hypervascular tumor in the uterine cervix. Colposcopy-directed biopsy revealed malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor. FDG PET/CT showed intense FDG uptake (SUVmax, 8.8) of the tumor mimicking cervical cancer. Total laparoscopic radical hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and pelvic lymphadenectomy were performed.
