Eye Symptoms in a Patient With Prostate Cancer

Clin Nucl Med. 2020 May;45(5):370-371. doi: 10.1097/RLU.0000000000002982.

Abstract

A 66-year-old man with castration-resistant prostate cancer was evaluated with F-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) 1007 PET/CT, which revealed extensive PSMA-positive skeletal metastases in the skull, thorax, spine, pelvis, and extremities. He was then treated Lu-PSMA-617 therapy. Twenty-four-hour SPECT/CT revealed additional activity not seen with F-PSMA adjacent to his left eye. The lesion was biopsied after the first cycle due to pain. This activity was not visible on SPECT/CT after the second treatment cycle, and his eye pain has resolved.
