Fig. 1

Transaxial and coronal preoperative CT image showing the oval to round shaped large cystic lesion (A,B). Anterior (C) and posterior (D) whole body images acquired 30 min post intradermal injection of filtered Tc99m sulphur colloid in the the first interdigital webs of bilateral lower limbs. Focal accumulation of radiotracer seen in the right lower hemithorax region (as shown by red arrow). No abnormal foci of radiotracer uptake seen in the neck and thorax region on anterior (E) and posterior (F) images acquired after ointravenous injection of 2 mCi of Tc99m pertechnetate to suggest heterotrophic gastric mucosa. Tc99m pertechnetate images were acquired after 48 h of Tc99m sulphur colloid lymphoscintigraphy
