[Serous cystadenocarcinoma of the ovary: unusual visualization of calcified intraperitoneal metastases in CT and bone scintigraphy].

In a 45-year old patient with serous cystadenocarcinoma of the ovary CT showed small calcifications in metastases along peritoneal surfaces. These "psammoma bodies" indicated abdominal implants, which in other respects would not have been demonstrable via CT scans because of their small size. During bone scintigraphy the calcifications caused unusual extraskeletal focal uptake of 99mTc-MDP in the abdomen.
