Abstract
A 60-year-old man on methotrexate for treatment of adult-onset Still disease presented with acute onset of fever, pancytopenia, and deranged liver function. Besides FDG-avid lesions in spleen and skeleton, his 18 F-FDG PET/CT study showed diffuse and intense uptake in the liver with significantly suppressed heart and brain activity (reminiscent of a hepatic superscan). Subsequent biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of methotrexate-associated lymphoproliferative disorder.
