Abstract

Abdominal wall metastasis from rectal carcinoma is very rare. We report FDG PET/CT findings of a solitary abdominal wall metastasis from rectal carcinoma in a 40-year-old man. On FDG PET/CT, it presents as a solitary soft tissue mass in the anterior abdominal wall with an SUV max of 9.54. The final pathology supported a diagnosis of metastasis from rectal carcinoma.
