Abstract

Kimura disease (KD) is a rare, benign chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by granulomatous inflammation with eosinophilic infiltration. We herein describe 68 Ga-PSMA PET/CT findings of KD in the left axilla in a case of prostate adenocarcinoma. This case indicates that KD may cause false-positive results when using PSMA PET in the staging of prostate cancer.
