¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT in a Rare Case of Multiple Parasitic Leiomyomas after Laparoscopic Morcellation

Parasitic leiomyoma is a rare late complication of laparoscopic morcellation done for a symptomatic uterine fibroid. We present here a case of symptomatic multiple parasitic leiomyomas in a 35-year-old woman who had undergone laparoscopic morcellation for infertility. Abdominal wall tumor raised suspicion of malignancy, for which ¹⁸F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography was performed, which demonstrated multiple parasitic leiomyomas, confirmed with post-surgical histopathology.
