Abstract

Abstract : Abstract: A 72-year-old man with history of lung cancer and melanoma was referred for routine follow-up with 18 F-FDG PET/CT. CT images showed a new mass in the right groin associated with mild FDG activity on 18 F-FDG PET images. Subsequent ultrasound obtained the same day demonstrated flow within the lesion to be a pseudoaneurysm of the right femoral artery.
