Abstract
Fibrous dysplasia is an uncommon benign bone pathology with only rare potential for malignant transformation. We describe the heterogeneous uptake of fibrous dysplasia of a whole rib on Ga-labeled prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT. Ga-PSMA binds to PSMA-expressing prostate cancer cells, but it can also bind to the neovasculature of various solid tumors, as well as to some benign lesions. Ga-PSMA expression in fibrous dysplasia should not automatically be equated with malignant transformation or confused with prostate cancer metastases.Entities:
