18F-FDG PET/CT Findings in a Patient With Primary Prostatic Synovial Sarcoma Combined With Adrenocortical Carcinoma

A 41-year-old man with 1-year history of hypertension was discovered to have a right adrenal mass on abdominal ultrasound. Contrast CT was performed to discriminate malignant from benign tumor, which revealed tumors of right adrenal gland and prostate. 18F-FDG PET/CT scan was performed for lesion characterization, and ruling out any distant metastasis. PET/CT scan showed high uptake in the right adrenal and prostatic lesions, which were surgically approved as adrenocortical carcinoma and primary prostatic synovial sarcoma.
