Abstract
An 80-year-old man developed high-risk prostate cancer after 7 years of active surveillance. For staging and treatment planning, a Ga-PSMA PET/MRI was performed. Besides the PSMA-positive primary tumor and a solitary bone metastasis in the fifth thoracic vertebral body, an intensive intrahepatic PSMA expression (SUVmax, 16.3) was suspicious for a liver metastasis. The results of a previously performed contrast-enhanced CT, a consecutively performed contrast-enhanced ultrasound, and a follow-up PSMA PET/CT after 4 months with a stable lesion during androgen deprivation lead to the diagnosis of a vascular malformation metabolically mimicking a hepatic metastasis of the prostate tumor.
