Lytic bone metastases are rare in prostate cancer. We here present 18 fluorine fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography computed tomography (PET-CT) images of a 67-year-old male patient with lytic metastases from prostate cancer. Repeat (18)F-FDG PET-CT done 6 months later showed response to medical castration therapy. While the role of (18)F-FDG PET-CT for sclerotic bone metastases in prostate cancer remains controversial, it appears to be useful for detection and response assessment of lytic prostate cancer metastases.
溶骨性骨转移在前列腺癌中较为罕见。我们在此展示一名67岁男性前列腺癌溶骨性转移患者的18氟脱氧葡萄糖((18)F-FDG)正电子发射断层扫描计算机断层扫描(PET-CT)图像。6个月后进行的重复(18)F-FDG PET-CT显示对药物去势治疗有反应。虽然(18)F-FDG PET-CT在前列腺癌硬化性骨转移中的作用仍存在争议,但它似乎对溶骨性前列腺癌转移的检测和反应评估有用。
