A Giant Duodenal Leiomyoma Showing Increased Uptake on 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography

Figure 2

Upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopy and FDG-PET/CT. Upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopy shows a tumor with ulcer formation (arrowhead) in the third part of the duodenum, involving half the circumference (a). FDG-PET/CT axial image (b) and sagittal image (c) show heterogeneous uptake inside the tumor (white arrow) with SUVmax 6.3. FDG-PET/CT whole body image (d) also reveals heterogeneous uptake inside the tumor (black arrow).
