Abstract

The 2-deoxy-2-[18F] fluoro-D-glucose position emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) findings of condyloma acuminata in a patient with FIGO Stage IB1 cervical cancer who had previously been treated with radical hysterectomy, pelvic chemoradiotherapy, and consolidation chemotherapy is described in this article. This case highlights the importance of considering condyloma acuminata during the differential diagnosis of abnormal vaginal FDG uptake in patients who have been treated for gynecological cancer.
