Abstract: A 56-year-old man presented with a 2-month history of a mass in the right epididymo-testicular region, which exhibited heterogeneous high avidity for 18F-FDG on PET/CT. Malignant tumor was highly suspected, leading to subsequent right orchiectomy and epididymectomy. Histopathological examination revealed the presence of characteristic Michaelis-Gutmann bodies within von Hansemann macrophages, confirming the diagnosis of malacoplakia.

Malakoplakia is a rare inflammatory disease that most frequently affects the urinary tract. We present the case of a patient who had been receiving treatment for breast cancer, who later on went on to develop diffuse large B-cell lymphoma for which she was started on RCHOP therapy. It was during her treatment that she underwent a whole-body 18F-FDG PET/CT for response evaluation and was incidentally diagnosed to have bilateral renal malakoplakia, which resolved after a prolonged course of antibiotic therapy.
