Negative (18)F-FDG PET and positive CT and MRI findings in multifocal splenic hamartoma.

CONCLUSION: The normal :F-FDG PET/CT findings suggested that, at least in this patient, splenic hamartoma may display a similar :F-FDG avidity when compared to normal splenic tissue. Alternatively, due to the infra-centrimeric size of the hamartoma and spill-over from :F-FDG activity from neighbouring normal tissue, the true (18)F-FDG avidity of the hamartomas present might also be overestimated.
