Abstract
We report the case of a 74-year-old man who had undergone radical prostatectomy for prostatic cancer 6 months earlier. Elevated prostate-specific antigen during follow-up prompted 18 F-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) ligand PET/CT ( 18 F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT) to search for new manifestations of prostate cancer, revealing an increased focal uptake (SUV max , 5.9) in the left cochlear/pericochlear temporal bone and equivocal PSMA-RADS-3a external iliac nodes. Comparison with cone-beam CT and MRI showed that the focal temporal bone uptake corresponded to the typical morphological features of active otospongiosis (otosclerosis) in the context of a previously known long-standing otospongiosis.
