Hepatitis C–Related Primary Effusion Lymphoma of the Pleura and Peritoneum, Imaged With F-18 FDG PET/CT
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Primary Effusion Lymphoma (PEL) is a rare form of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma that involves serous body cavities (pleural, pericardial, or peritoneal) with lymphomatous effusions in the absence of lymphadenopathy or organomegaly. Although it was seen mostly in HIV-positive patients, it has recently been reported in HIV-negative patients with chronic Hepatitis B or C infections. PEL is associated with human herpes virus type-8 infection, often presents with rapidly progressive effusions and generally has a poor prognosis. This is a case of a 65-year-old HIV-negative man with Hepatitis C cirrhosis, who presented with abdominal pain. An F-18 FDG PET/CT showed marked ascites and pleural effusions with increased F-18 FDG uptake in the pleura and peritoneum on the left side. Analysis of the cells in the peritoneal fluid revealed a human herpes virus 8-positive PEL of the peritoneum. As a result the patient was no longer considered a liver transplant candidate and died 2 weeks after the diagnosis.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
