Metastatic prostate cancer to the appendicular skeleton is rare. We present an 86-year-old man with undiagnosed prostate cancer presenting with unilateral foot pain. CT and MRI demonstrated a sclerotic midfoot suggestive of an infiltrative process. In view of an elevated PSA, metastatic disease was suspected, and bone scan confirmed osteoblastically active pelvic and lower-limb skeletal lesions. Subsequent prostate biopsy confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma. Staging 68 Ga-PSMA PET/CT demonstrated PSMA-avid intraprostatic malignancy with pelvic and right lower-limb skeletal metastases. This is an unusual case of de novo 68 Ga-PSMA-avid metastatic prostate cancer with atypical lower-limb skeletal metastases presenting with foot pain.
转移性前列腺癌累及四肢骨骼较为罕见。我们报告一例86岁男性,患有未确诊的前列腺癌,表现为单侧足部疼痛。CT和MRI显示中足硬化,提示有浸润性病变。鉴于前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)升高,怀疑为转移性疾病,骨扫描证实骨盆和下肢骨骼有骨母细胞活性病变。随后的前列腺活检确诊为前列腺腺癌。68 Ga-PSMA PET/CT分期显示前列腺内有PSMA摄取阳性的恶性肿瘤,伴有骨盆和右下肢骨骼转移。这是一例罕见的新发68 Ga-PSMA摄取阳性的转移性前列腺癌,伴有非典型下肢骨骼转移并以足部疼痛为表现。
