Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein and is expressed in multiple solid malignant neoplasms. We presented a case of a prostate cancer patient who went through Tc-99 m PSMA SPECT, and multifocal increased radiotracer uptake in the thyroid gland was demonstrated. Despite negative FNA results for malignancy, post-operative histopathologic examination illustrated papillary thyroid carcinoma.
