Orgovyx cured my metastatic prostate cancer.; took for 2 yrs; clean bill of health 5/10/2023.CT CHEST ABDOMEN PELVIS W CONTRAST

Details
Study Result
Narrative
EXAM: CT CHEST ABDOMEN PELVIS W CONTRAST

INDICATION: stage 4 prostate cancer, known nodal metastesis, repeat staging, access for treatment response

COMPARISON: Multiple prior CT scans. The most recent is the torso CT from 05/23/2022. Whole body bone scan 01/20/2021

TECHNIQUE: CT axial images of the chest, abdomen and pelvis were obtained during intravenous administration of 100 mL Omnipaque 350. Sagittal, coronal and MIP reformatted images were obtained and reviewed.

ORAL CONTRAST: Positive oral contrast was administered.

FINDINGS:

CHEST: Two micronodules which appear calcified (304:139 in the posterior left lower lobe and posterolateral right lower lobe 304:180) are stable and almost certainly incidental. No suspicious pulmonary nodules. An area of scarring in the medial left
lower lobe is stable. Trachea and mainstem bronchi are normal. No consolidations or effusions.

Normal thyroid.

The heart is not enlarged. No pericardial effusion. Nonaneurysmal aorta. Mild coronary artery calcifications.

No mediastinal, hilar or axillary adenopathy.

Normal thoracic esophagus.

ABDOMEN/PELVIS:

The liver is normal in size and morphology containing no suspicious lesions. The gallbladder contains a few small stones which layer dependently. Normal spleen, adrenal glands and pancreas. The left kidney contains a few scattered simple cysts which are
stable. No hydronephrosis.

The bowel is unremarkable with no evidence of obstruction or wall-thickening. Possibly the stump of the appendix is seen on coronal image 60. This is not inflamed.

Pathologic adenopathy in the pelvis and retroperitoneum has not recurred. Left external iliac node measures 7 mm ((303:201) and is stable. No growing lymph nodes are appreciated.

The bladder is unremarkable. The prostate is not well assessed but appears grossly normal.

No ascites. No peritoneal nodules.

Small fat-containing right inguinal hernia. A knuckle of small bowel protrudes into this but it is not inflamed.

Hepatic veins and portal venous system are patent. Focal moderate stenosis of the proximal 2 cm of the SMA secondary noncalcified atherosclerotic plaque (602:73). This has progressed. The lumen in this area has narrowed from 7 mm to 4 mm since 2021

MUSCULOSKELETAL: Left total hip arthroplasty prosthesis is intact. A subcentimeter sclerotic focus in the right lateral sixth rib is stable and did not demonstrate uptake on whole body bone scan. Most likely this is a small bone island. No suspicious
osseous lesions.

IMPRESSION: Stable exam. No pathologically enlarged pelvic or retroperitoneal lymph nodes. No convincing evidence of osseous metastatic disease noting a whole body bone scan is pending.

Moderate stenosis of the proximal SMA secondary to noncalcified atherosclerotic plaque. This has progressed relative to 2021. Since that time the lumen in this segment has narrowed from 7 mm to 4 mm.

Study Result
Narrative
EXAM: NM BONE WHOLE BODY

INDICATION: stage 4 prostate cancer, known nodal metastesis, repeat staging, access for treatment response STUDY NOTES: 20.6 mCi MDP in RAC

COMPARISON: CT chest and abdomen/pelvis 5/10/2023. Bone scan 1/20/2021

RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL: 20.6 mCi of Tc99m MDP IV.

TECHNIQUE: Following radiotracer administration, standard whole body bone scintigraphy was performed.

FINDINGS:

There are no uptake abnormalities suspicious for osseous metastatic disease.

Periarticular uptake in the shoulders, wrists and left ankle is typical in appearance and location for degenerative change. Additional focal uptake in the posterior thoracic and lumbar spine is favored to reflect degenerative change.

Renal, bladder and soft tissue uptake are physiologic

IMPRESSION:

No specific evidence of osseous metastatic disease.

@ken1945 did you have other treatments or just the orgovyx?
