Bone hemangiopericytoma (HPC) is extremely rare, and its clinical manifestations and radiographic features are nonspecific. There are few case reports about application of F18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in HPC. A total of four subjects with pathologically diagnosed bone HPC had FDG PET/CT for staging and/or restaging bone HPC. Medical records were retrospectively reviewed for radiological, pathological and follow-up information. All primary bone and metastatic lesions demonstrated high FDG avidity on PET/CT, which also revealed the adjacent soft tissue involvement and synchronous lesion. PET/CT correctly detected metastatic lesions in 1 patient. Furthermore, 3/4 patients with available laboratory data had hypocalcemia, but normal phosphorus levels when HPC existed as primary lesions or metastatic disease; however, normalization of calcium levels when they were disease-free. The results suggested that FDG PET/CT could be effectively used for staging, surveillance and detection of recurrent/metastatic disease in HPC. There may be an association between bone HPC and hypocalcemia.
