Pneumonitis Related to Melanoma Immunotherapy.
CLINICAL NUCLEAR MEDICINE(2019)
摘要
Several regimens of immunotherapy have recently proven successful for multiple cancers, due to increased survival and quality of life. Rarely, immunotherapy with anti-programmed cell death protein 1 and programmed death-ligand 1 antibodies across cancer may cause immune-related pulmonary toxicity, with a low overall incidence, being particularly low among patients with melanoma and highest among individuals with lung cancer. In this vein, pulmonary toxicity is staged at 4 degrees according to the severity of the clinic and radiological findings, and its management is based on suppression of immunotherapy and administration of glucocorticoids. We report a case of pulmonary toxicity related to melanoma immunotherapy observed by F-18-FDG PET/CT.
