A 7-year-old boy with known diagnosis of hereditary spherocytosis and ulcerative colitis was referred for F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography after detection of a 28 mm lesion suspicious for malignancy in spleen on upper abdomen magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). As an incidental finding, a moderately increased uptake of F-18-FDG was observed in periportal region with no definable mass. MRI revealed compatible findings with "periportal cuffing" as described on ultrasonography.
