摘要
We report a case of a 38-year-old man with a mesenchymal hamartoma of the liver (MHL) in which FDG did not accumulate intensely. The MHL was an ill-defined multicystic tumor on computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. It was an ill-defined mass with multihypometabolic areas on FDG PET/CT. When an ill-defined liver mass with multihypometabolic areas is observed on FDG PET/CT, MHL should be included in the differential diagnosis of liver tumors.
