Purpose.
The diagnostic performance of positron emission tomography using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG-PET) in detecting nodal involvement in patients with anal canal cancer (ACC) has been investigated by several studies with conflicting results.
The aim of our study is to systematically review and meta-analyze published data about this topic.
Methods.
A comprehensive computer literature search of PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and Embase databases was carried out on July 10 to find relevant articles concerning the diagnostic performance of FDG-PET in detecting locoregional nodal involvement in patients with ACC.
No language restriction was used.
Pooled diagnostic performance on a lesion-based analysis was calculated.
Results.
Seven retrospective and five prospective studies have been reviewed.
Six studies allowed assessing pooled sensitivity; five studies allowed assessing pooled specificity.
Sensitivity and specificity values of FDG-PET/CT on a lesion-based analysis ranged from 31 to 100% and from 53 to 98%, with pooled estimates of 56% (95% CI: 45–67%) and 90% (95% CI: 86–93%), respectively.
Conclusions.
Our meta-analysis demonstrates that FDG-PET is a specific diagnostic tool in detecting locoregional lymph node involvement in patients with ACC.
Low sensitivity is a major concern; however, higher sensitivity could be reached combining FDG-PET with MR scan.
