Abstract
A 71-year-old man with prostate adenocarcinoma underwent 68 Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT for staging. 68 Ga-PSMA PET/CT showed the primary lesion along with bladder, rectum, bilateral seminal vesicle invasion, and metastatic pelvic lymph nodes with intense 68 Ga-PSMA uptake. Also, PET/CT showed rarely seen bilateral vas deferens invasion and metastasis to the inguinal canal. These rare metastases may be indicative of poor biological behavior and prognosis.
