A 51-year-old woman with adenocarcinoma of the peritoneal cavity. The histopathological suggestion of the primary tumor site was the lower gastrointestinal tract. The primary tumor site in the small intestine was only visible with computed tomography alone. On the combined positron emission tomography/computed tomography scan, the primary tumor site was misinterpreted as peritoneal carcinomatosis.
