Abstrakt: Fluoride-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (FDG PET-CT) is increasingly applied in staging and treatment response assessment of lymphomas. Multiple isolated cases with extranodal involvement of non-Hodgkins lymphoma (NHL), detected on FDG PET-CT, have been previously reported. Here, we report a rare case of extranodal NHL involving multiple sites namely bilateral adrenals, liver and tibia in addition to supraclavicular, iliac and inguinal lymph nodes on FDG PET-CT and treatment response was assessed in follow-up FDG PET-CT.
