All 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT scans were centrally reviewed.RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: Of 96 patients, 15.6% (n = 15) harbored LNMs. The median prostate-specific antigen at 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT was 8.0 ng/ml (interquartile range 5.5-11.7). The majority of patients had intermediate- (52.1%) or high-risk disease (41.7%). Biopsy grade group 4 and 5 was present in 22.9% and 15.6%, respectively. The 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT scans identified eight of 15 patients (53.3%) as LN-positive (true positive). The calculated per-patient sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT in the detection of LNM were 53.3%, 98.8%, 88.9%, 92.0%, and 91.7%, respectively. The per-patient sensitivity and specificity in the detection of LNMs larger than 2 mm were 61.5% and 98.8%, respectively. The main limitation is the retrospective design of the study.CONCLUSIONS: 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT is accurate in lymph node staging and the results support its use for primary staging of prostate cancer.PATIENT SUMMARY: We compared prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-based positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) findings with histopathology results after extended lymph node dissection and showed that it is accurate in detecting lymph node metastases.
