Sarcoid-like reaction (SLR) is a cause of non-caseating granulomas in some of the cancer patients with otherwise no signs or symptoms of sarcoidosis. SLR has been described in a variety of solid organ malignancies, including breast and lung cancer. SLR may result in hypermetabolic activity in 18-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET)/CT scan, resulting in false positive reporting for malignancy. The purpose of this case series is to expose residents/practising physicians who interpret PET/CT to a series of cases illustrating findings of SLR.

Lymphomatoid granulomatosis (LA) is a rare angiocentric lymphoreticular proliferative disease that primarily involves the lungs but may also involve extrapulmonary sites including the central nervous system, skin, and kidneys. It is rare for this condition to affect children, and presentation as a cerebellar mass is unusual. In this report, we describe a 10-year-old girl with biopsy-proved cerebellar LA.
