I want to draw attention to the utility of abdominal [ 18F] 2-fluoro-2-deoxy D-glucose FDG -positron emission tomography PET / computed tomography CT images of oncology patients in diagnosis of coincidental retroaortic left renal vein RLRV and circumaortic left renal vein CLRV , which are among the most common left renal vein LRV variations. Demonstration of these major LRV variations by FDG-PET/CT imaging as well as by other imaging methods is of great significance, both surgically and diagnostically.
