Incidental Detection of Prostatic Lesion on 18F-FDG PET/CT and 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT Leading to Diagnosis of Second Primary Prostatic Adenocarcinoma in a Patient of Differentiated Thyroid Cancer

Second primary malignancies are being increasingly detected in the setting of thyroid cancer, because of adoption of the advanced imaging modalities including PET/CT. Herein, we present a patient of papillary thyroid carcinoma who initially underwent total thyroidectomy with bilateral neck dissection followed by 131 I radioactive iodine therapy. A prostatic lesion was incidentally detected on 18 F-FDG PET/CT scan, which was intensely 18 F-FDG avid and also showed intense focal 68 Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) uptake on 68 Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT scan. This led to the diagnosis of prostatic adenocarcinoma as a second primary cancer in this patient with papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Abstract

Second primary malignancies are being increasingly detected in the setting of thyroid cancer, because of adoption of the advanced imaging modalities including PET/CT. Herein, we present a patient of papillary thyroid carcinoma who initially underwent total thyroidectomy with bilateral neck dissection followed by 131 I radioactive iodine therapy. A prostatic lesion was incidentally detected on 18 F-FDG PET/CT scan, which was intensely 18 F-FDG avid and also showed intense focal 68 Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) uptake on 68 Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT scan. This led to the diagnosis of prostatic adenocarcinoma as a second primary cancer in this patient with papillary thyroid carcinoma.
