A Rare Case of “Periportal Cuffing” as an Incidental Finding on (18)F-FDG PET/CT

A 7-year-old boy with known diagnosis of hereditary spherocytosis and ulcerative colitis was referred for (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography after detection of a 28 mm lesion suspicious for malignancy in spleen on upper abdomen magnetic resonance im...

Sumario:A 7-year-old boy with known diagnosis of hereditary spherocytosis and ulcerative colitis was referred for (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography after detection of a 28 mm lesion suspicious for malignancy in spleen on upper abdomen magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). As an incidental finding, a moderately increased uptake of (18)F-FDG was observed in periportal region with no definable mass. MRI revealed compatible findings with “periportal cuffing” as described on ultrasonography.
