18F DCFPyL PSMA avid biopsy proven subcutaneous capillary haemangioma as a malignancy mimic in the setting of biochemical recurrent prostate carcinoma.
Аннотация
We present a case of a 65-year-old male with a biopsy proven subcutaneous capillary haemangioma identified on imaging for evaluation of further metastatic spread of prostatic carcinoma due to a rise in his prostate-specific antigen biochemistry. He was receiving salvage radiation therapy for his known isolated nodal disease, four years after prostatectomy. An intensely avid prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography-computed tomography lesion in the left paramedian back at the level of L1 was noted on his scan. A core biopsy revealed a dermal haemangioma with no evidence of metastatic prostatic carcinoma. To our knowledge, only one other incidental case of prostate-specific membrane antigen avid subcutaneous capillary haemangioma has been described in the literature. Whilst uncommon, incidental findings of prostate-specific membrane antigen PET avid dermal lesions are pathognomonic for haemangiomas and can be treated as "no touch" lesions with watchful observation.
