Post-laryngectomy localization of I-131 at tracheostomy site on a total body scan.

G A Kirk, E E Schulz.   

Abstract

A post-thyroidectomy, post-I-131-therapy patient had a laryngectomy and neck dissection for recurrent papillary thyroid carcinoma. A subsequent I-131 total body scan revealed persistent anterior neck activity, which disappeared upon removal of the tracheostomy tube and dressings.
