Abstract
A 52-year-old woman with a rapidly growing uterine tumor suspected of uterine sarcoma underwent 18F-FDG PET/MRI, revealing a myometrial mass and an endometrial lesion, suggesting dual primary neoplasms. Based on the PET/MRI findings, we changed the intraoperative procedure to determine the necessity of pelvic lymphadenectomy. PET/MRI was useful in diagnosing and differentiating between 2 malignant neoplasms in the uterus compared with PET/CT, due to MRI's high contrast resolution and precise fusion due to the simultaneous acquisition.
