Incidental prostate-specific membrane antigen-avid glioblastoma detected on (68)Ga–prostate-specific membrane antigen PET/CT

A 74-year-old man was referred for a (68)Ga–prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT scan for newly diagnosed prostate cancer which confirmed the presence of PSMA avid cancer in the right gland with no evidence of PSMA metastasis. Incidentally, there was a markedly PSMA avid (SUVmax 7.0) lob...

Sumario:A 74-year-old man was referred for a (68)Ga–prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT scan for newly diagnosed prostate cancer which confirmed the presence of PSMA avid cancer in the right gland with no evidence of PSMA metastasis. Incidentally, there was a markedly PSMA avid (SUVmax 7.0) lobulated periventricular mass in the region of the left basal ganglia which was T2 hyperintense and T1 hypointense with perilesional oedema and vivid Gadolinium enhancement on MRI. The patient underwent stereotactic guided biopsy which confirmed LHD wild-type glioblastoma (WHO grade IV).
