Abstract

Abstract 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging was performed for restaging in in a 16-year-old boy who was operated on for right testicular tumor and was diagnosed with malignant mixed germ cell tumor. Mild FDG uptake was observed in 2 nodules in both lungs and retroperitoneal lymph node in the abdomen. 68Ga–FAPI (fibroblast activation protein inhibitor) 04 PET/CT showed moderate uptake of FAPI in lung nodules and retroperitoneal lymph node. In this case, 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT was shown to be superior to 18F-FDG PET/CT in the evaluation of malignant mixed germ cell testicular tumor metastases.
