Abstract

Limitations exist with the use of computer tomography (CT) in evaluating tumour recurrence at the site of previous chest wall reconstruction due to poor differentiation between inflammatory change and tumour recurrence. This case highlights the value of combined positron emission tomography and CT, which generates detailed anatomical and metabolic profiles in this diagnostic dilemma.
