Abstract
Background. The imaging of “plugoma” (or meshoma) has not been largely described in the literature and could conduct to misdiagnosis. Therefore, there is a need for surgeons and radiologists to further their knowledge about postsurgical anatomic alterations after hernia repair.

Conclusion Our imagining effort together with our considerations may help other colleague to identify this alteration, thus avoiding unnecessary treatment for patients.

Key words: hernia plugoma meshoma foreign body reaction PET captation unnecessary workup
