Abstract

Seven patients with Gardner's syndrome—familial polyposis, desmoid tumors, and extracolonic manifestations—underwent gallium 67 (67Ga) scintigraphy. Gallium 67 was taken up by all desmoid tumors and skull osteomas. Three patients were considered clinically disease‐free and scintigraphy was normal. Gallium 67 scintigraphy may be a useful adjunct in the evaluation of patients with Gardner's syndrome.
