Penile secondary lesions: a rare entity detected by PET/CT

Abstract While penile metastases are rare, PET/CT has facilitated their detection. We aimed to describe penile secondary lesions (PSL) identified by PET/CT. We reviewed 18F-FDG and Ga68-PSMA PET/CT records performed in a single center during May 2012-March 2020, for PSL. Of 16,774 18F-FDG and 1,963...
