Imaging findings of hepatic lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) have been rarely reported before. We present the computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT findings in a patient with untreated pulmonary and hepatic MALT lymphoma over a 5-year period. On the 1st abdominal MRI scan, the hepatic MALT lymphoma showed multiple hepatic subcapsular masses. On FDG PET/CT, these hepatic tumors showed hypodenisty with FDG uptake similar to the liver on early PET images, and higher than liver on delayed PET images. The patient declined to undergo treatment. Fiver year later, the follow-up MRI and FDG PET/CT showed enlargement and confluence of the hepatic tumors with higher FDG uptake than before. The enlarged hepatic tumors had minimal mass effect. In the hepatic lesions, the blood vessels and bile ducts had no distortion or displacement. The hepatic MALT lymphoma should be taken into consideration when the hepatic tumors have minimal mass effect with the intrahepatic blood vessels and bile ducts normally passing through the tumors. Delayed-time-point FDG PET/CT imaging may be helpful for improving detectability of the hepatic MALT lymphoma.
