ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: We report a 70-year-old man with central pontine myelinolysis who presented in the emergency department with recent onset altered sensorium and tremors (Glasgow Coma Scale score, 13). Laboratory findings revealed hyponatremia and hypokalemia. MRI brain was unremarkable. Subsequently, patient was referred for FDG PET/CT to rule out malignancy or paraneoplastic syndrome. FDG PET revealed focal radiotracer uptake in the pons without any underlying CT abnormality consistent with central pontine myelinolysis, thus aiding in early diagnosis where conventional imaging modality was unremarkable.

ABSTRACT

We report a case of a 66-year-old man with prostate cancer who underwent 18F-prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography for baseline staging that revealed primary lesion in prostate gland along with a solitary metastatic deposit in the penile shaft. Penile metastasis is rare and usually associated with widespread metastatic disease. Solitary penile metastasis is even rarer and can present as a unifocal, multifocal, or diffuse lesion. Early detection is important in guiding treatment and preventing complications.
