چکیده
GGB from spleen and cardiac myxoma can be detected on image studies, mainly using magnetic resonance. They are seen as small nodules of decreased signal intensity.[4] Virtual colonography with either computed tomography or magnetic resonance is being used for the evaluation of colorectal polyps so it is interesting to transmit to radiologists the possibility of finding GGB in these lesions.[5] Concerning pathogenesis, the close association between hemosiderin deposits and GGB seen in the present cases reinforces the hypothesis of hemorrhage organization.
