A large hypermetabolic endometrial soft tissue thickening [image A], mainly involving the left lateral aspect of the endometrium, measuring ± 36 × 30 × 41mm at its maximal AP, TR & CC dimensions having intense avidity for FDG uptake [23.9 SUV max, SUV mean 10.32 and MTV = 17,280 mm3], on corresponding PET image [image B]. Associated infiltration of more than 50% of the myometrial coat yet no associated extra uterine or parametrial extensions. Regional solitary right internal iliac LN is noted about 13 × 12 mm having intense metabolic activity [image C], 9.5 SUV max, 6.46 SUVmean and vol. = 896 mm3
