ABSTRACT A 51-year-old woman was diagnosed with fulminant hepatic failure based on laboratory indexes. Contrast-enhanced CT demonstrated numerous, widespread lesions in all segments of the liver. 18F-FDG PET/CT showed the abundant foci of increased 18F-FDG uptake in the enlarged liver. The liver transplantation was performed due to fulminant hepatic failure. Postoperative pathology demonstrated diffused hepatic angiosarcoma, which should be included in the differential diagnosis of diffuse 18F-FDG uptake hepatic lesions on PET/CT.
