Introduction: This study aimed at presenting a case of testis dermoid tumor with false positive meta-iodobenzyl-guanidine (MIBG) scan. Conclusions: Meta-Iodobenzyl-Guanidine can be absorbed by adipose tissue, one of the components of dermoid cysts. This phenomenon can result in false positivity of this scan in these cases. False negative MIBG scan is not uncommon in carcinoid tumors, however, false positive answers should not be neglected in planning treatment.
