Özet
58-year-old female patient, who has been treated and followed-up for ovarian cancer and its colonic metastasis has also been on hemodialysis three times a week for 10 years due to chronic renal failure. Because of the right femoral pain, she underwent bone scintigraphy in order to evaluate the likelihood of developing metastatic disease. Diffuse Tc-99m MDP uptake in the heart was detected on her bone scan. This case was presented to highlight underlying reasons of this very rare and unexpected cardiac uptake in the patient without known heart disease.
