In this case report, we aimed to emphasize the importance of positron emission tomography with 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine-18] fluoro-D-glucose integrated with computed tomography in the initial staging of Hodgkin’s lymp-homa, evaluating the response to treatment, and to demonstrate residual tissue or recurrence. Case Report: A 25-year-old male patient presented to Trakya University Hospital with swelling in the right groin and was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Positron emission tomography with 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine-18] fluoro-D-glucose integrated with computed tomography scan was used for initial staging and assessment of response to treatment. Conclusion: Positron emission tomography is a feasible imaging modality for the evaluation of lymphomas. It is sensitive to detect minimal recurrence as well as alterations of lesions’ metabolic activity.
