68Ga-PMSA PET imaging has revolutionized both diagnosis and radioligand therapy selection in patients with metastatic prostate cancer. We report the case of a 63-year-old man with prostate adenocarcinoma who underwent radical prostatectomy followed by radiation therapy and ADT. Found to have rising PSA levels and referred for 68Ga- PSMA PET/CT for restaging. 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT showed multiple suspicious 68Ga-PSMA PSMA avid mediastinal lymph nodes and an avid lesion in the right lower anterior abdominal wall; suspicious for metastasis. Ultrasonography guided biopsy showed metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma. In our cases, 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT identified the unexpected metastatic site which leads to change patient management and potentially improving patient outcome.
68Ga-前列腺特异性膜抗原(PMSA)正电子发射断层扫描(PET)成像彻底改变了转移性前列腺癌患者的诊断和放射性配体治疗选择。我们报告了一例63岁前列腺腺癌男性患者的病例,该患者接受了根治性前列腺切除术,随后进行了放射治疗和雄激素剥夺治疗(ADT)。发现其前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)水平升高,并转诊进行68Ga-PMSA PET/CT重新分期。68Ga-PMSA PET/CT显示多个可疑的68Ga-PMSA摄取的纵隔淋巴结以及右下前腹壁的一个摄取病灶;怀疑为转移灶。超声引导下活检显示为转移性前列腺腺癌。在我们的病例中,68Ga-PMSA PET/CT识别出意外的转移部位,这导致了患者治疗方案的改变,并有可能改善患者的预后。
