摘要：

Gastric FDG uptake is a common observation on positron emission tomography (PET), which is most frequently caused by a nonmalignant etiology. However, a malignant lesion in the region of the stomach must not be overlooked. A 48-year-old woman with a history of melanoma in the esophagus and status postesophagectomy underwent FDG PET to evaluate for tumor recurrence. The images demonstrated hypermetabolism in the region of the location of the stomach. However, considering that the patient had a history of a stomach pullthrough procedure, we felt that this activity was non-gastric and represented tumor recurrence, which was subsequently confirmed by computed tomography scan and histopathologic examination.
