Abstract

Biochemical recurrence following prostate cancer treatment is well-known, with predictable sites typically observed in the prostate bed, lymph nodes, or skeleton. The emergence of PSMA-PET scans has revealed the potential for early recurrence in non-conventional sites, including port site metastases. Our report presents a rare case of abdominal wall metastasis detected 97 months post-prostatectomy. The excision of this subcutaneous lesion using image-guided hookwire techniques showed promise in minimising morbidity while providing successful oncologic outcomes. Further investigation is needed to establish the efficacy of PSMA-PET-guided interventions on long-term patient outcomes in treating prostate cancer port site metastases.
