Abstract
- A herniation pit is a benign bone pit characterized by its femoral location and surrounding sclerotic margin. Few reports have been issued on the fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography findings of herniation pit. Here, we report the unique case of a thyroid cancer patient, having a herniation pit showing transient FDG uptake, which mimicked bone metastasis.
