in association with overexpression of cellular membrane glucose transporters is a hallmark of malignant transformation in tumors&#46; FDG is the most studied tracer in prostate cancer patients&#46; However&#44; there is considerable controversy in the literature on FDG-PET&#47;CT in prostate cancer&#46; Even though prostate cancer shows GLUT-1 overexpression<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7&#44;8</span></a> and the glucose metabolism in prostate cancer is GLUT-mediated&#44; the biological heterogeneity of the tumor complicates the use of FDG-PET&#47;CT in prostate cancer&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7&#44;8</span></a> Clinicians generally agree that FDG-PET may not be valuable in diagnosis and primary staging of organ-confined prostate cancer&#46; However&#44; PET&#47;CT takes a step further that allows the characterization of tumor biology&#46; Today&#44; it is well known that aggressive tumors tend to have higher levels of FDG uptake compared to the less aggressive tumors&#46; In addition&#44; recent studies demonstrate that FDG uptake in prostate cancer increases with Gleason score&#44; serum PSA levels and PSA velocity which indicates that FDG-PET may be used as a measure of tumor metabolism and aggressiveness&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> Moreover&#44; FDG-PET scan may also provide beneficial information in the assessment of patients with rising serum PSA levels after treatment of localized prostate cancer&#46; In addition to the role of FDG in evaluation of patients with prostate cancer&#44; studies of choline analogs labeled either with <span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span>C or <span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span>F show promising results in clinical workup of patients with prostate cancer&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a> Carcinoma of the prostate shows high levels of choline uptake along with elevated levels of choline metabolites&#44; which can be used as potential prognostic biomarkers for the management of prostate cancer patients&#46;</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Combining the biological behavior of PSCC with the above-discussed association of FDG avidity and tumor biology&#44; the use of FDG-PET&#47;CT in the clinical management of patients with PSCC may be reasonable&#46; However&#44; mostly depending on the rarity of this tumor&#44; yet&#44; there is not sufficient data on the use of FDG-PET in PSCC&#46; In current literature&#44; only 4 case reports are reported previously&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3&#8211;6</span></a> As described in these reports&#44; PSCC shows increased metabolic activity as depicted by increased uptake on FDG-PET&#46; However&#44; no information on the expression of Ki-67&#44; which is a marker of high proliferative activity&#44; was present&#46;</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the present report&#44; similar to previously published cases&#44; we observed intense FDG uptake in the primary tumor as well as in the metastatic deposits&#46; However&#44; to our knowledge&#44; this is the first case report that demonstrates the association of increased Ki-67 index with high FDG uptake in a patient with PSCC and widespread disease&#46; We considered that&#44; intense metabolic activity in PSCC was in concordance with the aggressive nature of the tumor and poor survival characteristics&#46;</p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">High Ki-67 index correlates with Gleason score and pathological tumor stage in prostate cancers and is associated with aggressive features of prostate cancer&#46; In addition to that it is found to be higher in prostate cancers which are positive for neuroendocrine markers&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span></a> Regarding the association of Ki-67 index with Gleason score&#44; aggressive biological character of the tumor and FDG avidity&#44; we consider that the use of FDG&#8211;PET scan in prostate cancers&#44; particularly in adenocarcinomas&#44; should increase in time with the indications of prognostication&#44; diagnosis and staging of tumors with high Gleason score&#44; detection of locally recurrent or metastatic disease&#46;</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">High rate of proliferation and high metabolic activity of PSCCs are in line with the known aggressive behavior of PSCC&#46; In the case presented above&#44; Ki-67 index was reported as &#62;90&#37; showing high proliferative activity in the tumor&#44; which in turn may contribute to the factors increasing glucose metabolism of the tumor cells as depicted by FDG&#8211;PET scan&#46; However&#44; further investigation is warranted to show association of proliferative activity and metabolic activity in prostate cancers as well as in PSCCs&#46;</p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">As a summary&#44; although current literature lacks of large series concerning the use of FDG&#8211;PET in PSCC&#44; our report and a few previously published ones highlight that FDG&#8211;PET&#47;CT may provide important prognostic information in the initial workup of patients with PSCC as well as offering the advantage of assessing treatment response&#46; Additionally&#44; we consider that FDG&#8211;PET may be of great value in detecting metastases when biochemical tumor markers such as PSA are of no use in the follow-up of patients with PSCC&#46;</p></span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle">Funding source</span><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">None&#46;</p></span><span id="sec0025" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle">Conflict of interest</span><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Authors declare that there is no conflict of interest&#46;</p></span></span>"
