Abstract:
A 17-year-old girl with abdominal pain for 3 months underwent 18F-FDG PET to evaluate possible malignancy due to unexplained ascites detected by ultrasound. The images demonstrated multiple foci of abnormally increased 18F-FDG activity in the lymphadenopathy from the neck to the abdomen and in the thickened intestinal wall. In addition, abnormal activity was noted in the pharynx and skeletons. Cysticercosis was confirmed pathologically.
