Tumour thrombus is an uncommon complication with ominous outcomes. F18 FDG PET-CT scan helps in differentiating tumour thrombus from venous thrombus owing to its metabolic uptake similar to the tumour. We discuss an interesting case of gastric malignancy with complete splenic vein tumour thrombosis on initial presentation.
