Synchronous cancer refers to a new primary cancer in a person with a history of
malignant disease. It may be easily missed in early stages of its development.
Besides its high sensitivity in the diagnosis of malignant disease, FDG-PET/
CT has a technical advantage due to routinely performed whole-body scanning
procedures in the detection of synchronous cancers. In this case report, we discussed
two cases in which synchronous cancer was incidentally detected by
FDG-PET/CT whole body examination.
