Retrospective analysis of thyroid incidentalomas detected by [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT.
Background: Prostate cancer patients, undergo imaging procedures, with [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT (prostate-specific membrane antigen based positron emission tomography/computed tomography) utilized for primary and secondary staging. PSMA thyroid incidentalomas (PTI) are discovered in the thyroid gland while imaging prostate cancer patients with [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT.
Aims: The aim of the study was to determine the clinical significance of PTIs detected on [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT. Another goal was to identify a possible threshold for the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), above which a malignant growth could be suspected.
Study design: A retrospective cross-sectional study.
Methods: 769 patients with prostat cancer who underwent [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT scans in the nuclear medicine department of a tertiary care hospital between January 2020 and December 2022 were retrospectively screened in this study. We analyzed 67 patients in whom PTI was detected. Patients who exceeded the inclusion criteria had their thyroid ultrasonography and ultrasonography -guided fine needle aspiration findings analyzed.
Results: PTI was discovered in 67 patients (8%). 42 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in the study. Of the 4 malignant patients (9.5%) in the study population, 2 were classified as TIRADS 3 and 2 were classified as TIRADS 4. The cut-off SUVmax value was found to be 5.6. With 100% sensitivity and 47.37% specificity, a cutoff SUVmax of 5.3 was determined through receiver-operator characteristic analysis in order to predict malignant cytology.
Conclusion: PTI is a significant clinical finding; most of diffuse and focal uptakes are frequently related to benign diseases. Each center should establish its own a possible SUVmax cut-off over which a malignant lesion should be suspected.
期刊介绍:
Well-established as a major journal in today’s rapidly advancing experimental and clinical research areas, Endocrine publishes original articles devoted to basic (including molecular, cellular and physiological studies), translational and clinical research in all the different fields of endocrinology and metabolism. Articles will be accepted based on peer-reviews, priority, and editorial decision. Invited reviews, mini-reviews and viewpoints on relevant pathophysiological and clinical topics, as well as Editorials on articles appearing in the Journal, are published. Unsolicited Editorials will be evaluated by the editorial team. Outcomes of scientific meetings, as well as guidelines and position statements, may be submitted. The Journal also considers special feature articles in the field of endocrine genetics and epigenetics, as well as articles devoted to novel methods and techniques in endocrinology.
Endocrine covers controversial, clinical endocrine issues. Meta-analyses on endocrine and metabolic topics are also accepted. Descriptions of single clinical cases and/or small patients studies are not published unless of exceptional interest. However, reports of novel imaging studies and endocrine side effects in single patients may be considered. Research letters and letters to the editor related or unrelated to recently published articles can be submitted.
Endocrine covers leading topics in endocrinology such as neuroendocrinology, pituitary and hypothalamic peptides, thyroid physiological and clinical aspects, bone and mineral metabolism and osteoporosis, obesity, lipid and energy metabolism and food intake control, insulin, Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, hormones of male and female reproduction, adrenal diseases pediatric and geriatric endocrinology, endocrine hypertension and endocrine oncology.
