The rapid uptake of 68Ga prostate-specific membrane antigen HBED-CC positron emission tomography (PSMA PET) imaging for prostate cancer staging has led to concerns regarding its specificity, with uptake in both malignant and nonmalignant tissues. We describe 3 separate malignancies identified on PSMA PET imaging. The misnomer "prostate-specific membrane antigen" is demonstrated by this case and highlights the importance of continued investigation of the potential role of PSMA PET in other malignancies.
