Core Tip	The current study analyzed bone scintigraphy (BS) data from 150 patients with biopsy-proven prostate carcinoma to determine skeletal metastasis patterns. The most common site of skeletal metastasis was pelvis. The incidence of exclusive extrapelvic skeletal metastatic disease was 2%, excluding one indeterminate case. Additionally, no patients in the study had exclusive extrapelvic-extraspinal metastasis. Therefore, exclusive extrapelvic-extraspinal focal abnormalities on planar BS have a very low likelihood of being metastatic, making further imaging or single photon emission computed tomography-computed tomography often unnecessary.
