Abstract
We present the case of a patient who underwent an open radical prostatectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection (Gleason 4+3, pT3a pN1 R0) in March 2017. In November 2020, prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-radioguided salvage lymph node dissection was planned due to a single left para-rectal lymph node at a [68Ga] Ga-PSMA-I&T PET. In January 2022, the [68Ga] Ga-PSMA-I&T PET showed an isolated liver lesion. Biopsy confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma. A liver segmentectomy was performed. A complete biochemical response was reported until the last follow-up (December 2022). Prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography (PSMA PET)-directed metastasis-directed therapy may be an effective treatment in selected cases, allowing a benefit in the oncological outcome.
