Incidental possible diagnosis by 18F-fluorocholine PET/CT of Meckel's diverticulum and potential pitfalls.
CONCLUSION: In this particular case, we managed to clearly demonstrate the presence of a tubular blind ending structure arising from the distal ileum on the sagittal images. The careful identification of this structure indicated that tracer uptake was in a Meckel's diverticulum and not within a pelvic lymph node or pelvic organ hence excluding recurrent disease.
