Abstract
A 6-year-old boy with ganglioneuroblastoma, received 4 courses of chemotherapy and underwent partial resection of the tumor. The control scintigraphy with 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I-mIBG) was performed, including the single photon emission computed tomography protocol combined with computed tomography (SPECT/CT), revealing the residual tumor with pathological uptake of 123I-MIBG. In addition to this, there was a focal uptake of 123I-mIBG in the gallbladder. In this clinical case we have demonstrated an atypical uptake of 123I-mIBG in the gallbladder.
