Özet
The authors describe a neonate with bilateral dysplastic kidneys who underwent Tc-99m DMSA scintigraphy for the assessment of renal cortical functions. Although poor renal uptake was noted on the Tc-99m DMSA scan, an unusual area of soft tissue accumulation was detected in the right hypochondrium. A color Doppler study confirmed the diagnosis of soft tissue hemangioma as the cause of extrarenal Tc-99m DMSA accumulation, which has not been reported before. Poor renal function resulting in high blood-pool activity of Tc-99m DMSA may lead to extrarenal localization of the tracer in infantile hemangioma.
