Abstract:
Prostate cancer is a common malignancy affecting elderly males. Generally, prostate cancer metastases to lymph nodes and skeletal lesions. Brain metastasis from prostate cancer is an uncommon phenomenon. When occurs, it affects the liver and lungs. Less than 1% of the cases show brain metastases, with isolated brain metastases being even more rare. We present the case of a 67-year-old male patient who was diagnosed to have prostate carcinoma and maintained on hormonal therapy. Later, the patient presented with raising serum-68 prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels. Gallium-68 prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scan revealed isolated cerebellar metastasis. He was later treated with whole brain radiotherapy.
