Objective:This study aims to investigate the correlation between the metabolic parameters of 18F-FDG PET/CT and the expression of neuroendocrine markers(Syn,CgA,CD56),TTF-1 and Ki-67,and the value of prognosis in small cell lung cancer(SCLC). Methods:The immunohistochemical data and 18F-FDG PET/CT data of 96 SCLC cases confirmed by pathology were retrospectively analyzed,the cases collected from January 2009 to May 2017 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University. Results:The median of primary lesion maximum standardized uptake value(PSUVmax),whole body lesion metabolic tumor volume(WBMTV)and whole body lesion glycolysis(WBTLG)in 96 SCLC patients were 10.30(1.20~42.90)、108.44(0.41~710.40)cm3、585.73(1.30~10 668.50);the values of PSUVmax,WBMTV and WBTLG had statistically significant differences between the negative and positive groups of TTF-1(Z=-3.063,-2.235,-2.538,P=0.002,0.025,0.011). The Spearman correlation analysis shows that there was a positive correlation between PSUVmax and Ki-67 expression(r=0.620,P < 0.001). Kaplan-Meier single factor analysis shows the expression of TTF-1 and CD56,WBMTV,WBTLG was significantly correlated with overall survival(HR:0.477,0.090,2.862,2.795,all P < 0.05). Multivariate survival analysis showed that CD56 and WBMTV were independent prognostic factors of overall survival(OS). Conclusion:The metabolic parameters of 18F-FDG PET/CT in SCLC had a good correlation with the expressions of TTF-1 and Ki-67,and no correlation with neuroendocrine markers. CD56 and WBMTV were the independent prognostic factors of OS.
