%X a case report of a patient with treated non-hodgkin lymphoma is presented. in his usual tomographic control patient was requested a pet-ct scan to supplement prior study that showed a metabo-lically active focus on the left adductor muscle without evident tomographic correlation. lesion underwent both a soft tissue ultrasound study and a directed biopsy, the latter being positive for secondary infiltration by lymphoma. this case has demonstrated the usefulness of applying complementary techniques in the management of these lesions, mainly of pet-ct scans in the study of unusual sites of spread. this combined medical imaging technique allows accurate lesion localization, which in turn permits performance of a subsequent directed study.
