Methods Study cohort included 963 consecutive patients with newly diagnosed PCa referred for Ga-68 PSMA-11 PET/CT study for staging. The incidence of bone involvement, type of bone metastases, and extent of disease were determined and correlated with the ISUP Grade Group (GG) criteria and PSA levels. Results Bone metastases were found in 188 (19.5%) of 963 patients. Bone metastases were found in 10.7% of patients with PSA < 10 ng/dL and in 27.4% of patients with PSA > 10 ng/dL and in 6.1% of patients with GG ≤ 2/3 and in 8.9% of patients with GG 4/5. In 7.6% of the patients, skeletal involvement was extensive, while 11.9% of patients had oligometastatic disease. Osteoblastic type metastases were the most common type of bone metastases presented in 133 of the patients with malignant bone involvement (70.7%). More than half of them had only osteoblastic lesions (72 patients (38.3%)), while the other (61 patients (32.5%)) had also intramedullary and/or osteolytic type lesions. Intramedullary metastases were found in 97 patients (51.6%), while 41 (21.8%) of them were only intramedullary lesions. Osteolytic metastases were detected in 36 patients (19.2%), of which 8 were only osteolytic lesions. Conclusion Although traditionally bone metastases of PCa are considered osteoblastic, osteolytic and intramedullary metastases are common, as identified on PET with labeled PSMA. Skeletal spread may be present also in patients with GG ≤ 2/3 and PSA < 10 ng/dL.","PeriodicalId":220313,"journal":{"name":"Performing Authorship","volume":"97 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133722673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
