Abstract
68 Ga-PSMA PET/CT is one of the most common imaging uses for prostate cancer imaging. Although initially thought to be specific for prostate cancer, there are many evidences that are coming of its concentration in many other neoplastic and nonneoplastic pathologies. Helicobacter pylori is the most common bacteria causing gastric inflammation and usually presents with gastroduodenal ulcer. Here we present one unusual case of benign gastric mass formation caused by H. pylori infection with PSMA concentration.
