Excerpt

A patient with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma was placed on immunotherapy with nivolumab. A first [18F]-FDG PET/CT examination was performed before immunotherapy (a.). Two years after having initiated nivolumab, [18F]-FDG PET/CT showed an almost complete metabolic response, but revealed the occurrence of a hypermetabolic infiltration surrounding the abdominal artery and primary iliac arteries (b., d.). This raised the potential diagnosis of retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) in the specific context of immunotherapy, although the assumptions of lymph node infiltration related to pulmonary adenocarcinoma, or lymphoproliferative syndrome, could not be eliminated. The histologic analysis confirmed the diagnosis of iatrogenic RPF. …
