Isolated Cubital Node Metastasis in a Treated Case of Breast Carcinoma on <sup>18</sup> F-FDG PET/CT: A Rare Finding
Isolated cubital nodal metastasis is an extremely rare site of recurrence in posttreatment cases of breast carcinoma. A 37-y-old woman with breast carcinoma had a disease-free interval of 2 y. Follow-up <sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET/CT showed a <sup>18</sup>F-FDG-avid lesion in the proximal part of the right forearm, and PET/CT-guided fine-needle aspiration revealed metastatic carcinoma. With proven disease recurrence, the patient was scheduled for chemotherapy.
