Abstract

Abstract Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma of the gastrointestinal tract is a rare malignancy. We describe contrast-enhanced CT and FDG PET/CT findings in a case of jejunal follicular dendritic cell sarcoma with hepatic metastasis. The primary jejunal tumor showed inhomogeneous enhancement on contrast-enhanced CT and intense FDG uptake on PET/CT mimicking adenocarcinoma or gastrointestinal stromal tumor. The hepatic metastatic tumor showed hypovascularity on contrast-enhanced CT and mild FDG uptake on PET/CT. This case indicates that follicular dendritic cell sarcoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of the hypermetabolic intestinal lesions.
