Abnormal gallium scan in regional enteritis.

Regional enteritis in a 41-year-old woman was localized on a 67Ga-citrate scan, appearing as a well-circumscribed abnormality in the pelvis simulating an abscess or a malignant neoplasm. Gallium-67-citrate scintigraphy is useful in localizing granulomatous inflammations including regional enteritis, and its use may be beneficial in evaluating the extent and the state of disease process.
