Brain metastasis originating in adenocarcinoma of the prostate is rare and can be expected in cases of disseminated bone and soft-tissue disease. Asymptomatic brain metastasis is rare at any point of the disease stage. Ga-68 PSMA positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is one of the useful investigations for assessing the disease status in adenocarcinoma of the prostate. We report a case of asymptomatic brain metastases detected in Ga-68 PSMA PET-CT scan.
前列腺腺癌起源的脑转移瘤罕见,在骨和软组织弥漫性疾病的病例中可能出现。在疾病的任何阶段,无症状脑转移都很罕见。镓-68前列腺特异性膜抗原正电子发射断层扫描-计算机断层扫描(PET-CT)是评估前列腺腺癌疾病状态的有用检查方法之一。我们报告一例在镓-68 PSMA PET-CT扫描中检测到的无症状脑转移病例。
