18F-FDG PET/CT Findings of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Involving the Whole Genitourinary System

Focal IgG4-related periprostatic "PI-RADS 5" pseudotumor mimicking prostatic adenocarcinoma

Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a systemic fibroinflammatory disease characterized by raised serum IgG4 levels and tumefactive inflammation affecting multiple organ systems, typically involving the pancreas and biliary tree. Though rare, prostatic involvement has been reported in a few cases and is suspected to be an underreported entity. Our patient is a 63-year-old gentleman who has presented with an incidental "PI-RADS 5" (Prostate Imaging Reporting & Data System) prostate lesion and perivascular soft tissue cuffing of the superior rectal vessels on MRI rectum performed for surveillance of rectal neuroendocrine tumor. He had a history of lacrimal gland IgG4-RD. The lentiform prostate lesion subtly indents the prostate capsule, reminiscent of a periprostatic rather than an intraprostatic lesion. Perivascular cuffing of superior rectal vessels suggest inflammatory vasculitis of IgG4-RD. Differential diagnosis of periprostatic inflammatory IgG4-RD was considered, subsequently proven on MRI-ultrasound fusion targeted biopsy. Reported radiological findings of prostate IgG4-RD typically show diffuse chronic inflammation of the prostate, with a minority of the reports describing focal involvement, often mimicking focal prostate adenocarcinoma. Focal periprostatic involvement of IgG4-RD is an unusual manifestation which should be considered in patients with IgG4-RD who present with a periprostatic pseudotumor. IgG4-RD of the prostate usually responds well to steroid treatment without the need for surgery.

Multicentric primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in genitourinary tract detected on 18F-F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computed tomography: An uncommon presentation of a common malignancy

Primary extranodal lymphomas (ENLs) are lymphomas with no or minor nodal involvement and a dominant extranodal component originating from any organ. Primary ENL originating in the genitourinary tract is extremely rare. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most frequent histological subtype in primary genitourinary lymphoma. Lymphomatous involvement of genitourinary system organs is common in the setting of disseminated disease. Herein, we present a unique case of primary multicentric extranodal DLBCL of the urogenital system involving ureter, seminal vesicle, and penis detected on 18fluro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computed tomography, and to the best of our knowledge, it is the first case report with multiorgan involvement within a single (urogenital) organ system in a patient without disseminated disease, i.e., with no other nodal or extranodal organ system involvement.
