18F-FDG PET/CT Imaging of Prostatic Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma

View through CrossRef
Abstract Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of the prostate is a rare malignant vasogenic tumor. We report a case of epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of the prostate in a 65-year-old man with lymph nodes and lung metastases on 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging. The patient presented with symptoms of frequent and urgent urination. On 18F-FDG PET/CT, intense FDG uptake was observed in the prostate mass along with multiple FDG-avid lesions involving the lung and lymph nodes. Histopathological examination confirmed epithelioid hemangioendothelioma in both the prostate mass and lung nodule.
