More Prominent 18F-FDG Uptake Than 68Ga-FAPI-04 in Nongestational Choriocarcinoma

Ya Liu, Ke Xiang, Miao Liu, Haoyuan Ding, Yue Chen

Choriocarcinoma, a highly malignant trophoblastic tumor, usually follows a normal or abnormal pregnancy and is called gestational choriocarcinoma. The nongestational form, known as primary choriocarcinoma, is extremely rare in men. Herein, we report the 18 F-FDG and 68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT findings in a 56-year-old man with nongestational choriocarcinoma of unknown primary and multiple metastases. The lesions showed intense 18 F-FDG uptake but limited 68 Ga-FAPI-04 accumulation.
