Abstract

Small cell carcinoma of prostate (PSCC) is an uncommon and aggressive type of prostate malignancy with limited data on the use of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in the clinical management of this rare entity. In this report, clinical and imaging findings of a patient with PSCC are presented. We aimed to discuss the role of PET/CT in the evaluation of PSCC in combination with histopathological characteristics of tumor and emphasize the importance of PET/CT in the clinical management of PSCC.

Keywords:
Positron emission tomography
18F-fluorodeoxyglucose
Small cell prostate cancer
Resumen

El carcinoma de células pequeñas de la próstata (CCPP) es una neoplasia prostática agresiva y poco frecuente. Existen datos limitados en la literatura sobre el uso de la tomografía por emisión de positrones/tomografía computarizada (PET/TC) con 18F-fluorodeoxiglucosa en el manejo clínico de esta rara entidad. Presentamos los datos clínicos y las imágenes en un paciente con CCPP. Nuestro objetivo ha sido discutir el papel de la PET/TC en la evaluación del CCPP en combinación con las características histopatológicas del tumor, así como hacer énfasis en la importancia de la PET/TC en el manejo clínico del CCPP.
