title: Plasmacytoma of the ovary: additional role of 18F-FDG PET/CT.
abstract: We report a case of ovarian plasmacytomas where 18F-FDG PET/CT helped in staging by demonstrating increased FDG uptake limited to the ovary, and hence, surgical treatment was carried out as the disease was localized to the ovary.
