Gallium 67 scintigraphy in the evaluation of Gardner's syndrome.

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.
