Isolated biopsy-proven recurrence of prostate carcinoma in the spermatic cord after radical prostatectomy detected with 11C-Choline PET/CT

We report an unusual case of a solitary prostatic metastasis in the spermatic cord, following robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection and salvage radiotherapy, detected with the use of (11)C-Choline PET/CT, heralded by a progressive rise in PSA. This les...

description We report an unusual case of a solitary prostatic metastasis in the spermatic cord, following robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection and salvage radiotherapy, detected with the use of (11)C-Choline PET/CT, heralded by a progressive rise in PSA. This lesion was biopsy-proven and surgically resected through radical left-sided orchiectomy. Postoperatively his PSA was undetectable and remained undetectable with no evidence of recurrent disease.
