Abstract
Although hepatoblastoma is the most common malign tumor in childhood in the liver there are few studies including fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography imaging and hepatoblastoma. The patient included in this report has multiple hepatic lesions with high alphaphetoprotein (AFP) levels suggestive of hepatoblastoma but no increased FDG uptake in the liver lesions who responded the chemotherapy very well.
