Objective. To establish criteria for the diagnosis of primary urothelial prostate carcinoma after the differential diagnosis including high-grade urothelial carcinoma extending into the bladder neck and prostate versus poorly differentiated prostate adenocarcinoma extending into the bladder. Case report. The patient was a 37-year-old man with severe prostatism symptoms, who presented with an atypical seminal vesicles fluid cytological test result. The prostate was also normal by the digital examination, endoscopy, roentgenography, ultrasonography and serum markers. A diagnostic transurethral resection of bladder mucosa, bladder neck specimen revealed normal urothelial tissues. The urine cytological test result was negative. The transrectal biopsy of the prostate revealed an urothelial carcinoma with a negative staining of PSA (prostate-specific antigen) and positive of cytokeratins CK 8 and CK HMW. The patient subsequently underwent radical cystoprostatectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy with ileal conduit m. Brycker creation. The histological diagnosis was the urothelial carcinoma of the prostate. Also, the prostate showed foci of High Grade PIN and prostate adenocarcinoma. After 15 months the patient has a PSA level of 0.2 ng/mL, no symptoms, no evidence of progression. Based on this case of the urothelial carcinoma of prostate, the literature was reviewed and the morphological differentiation between urothelial carcinoma and adenocarcinoma of the prostate was discussed. Conclusions The diagnostic criteria are the following: (1) the tumor should be a macro-, microscopically and imunohistochemically verified as urothelial carcinoma localized exclusively in the prostate gland; (2) there must be no other primary urothelial carcinoma in the body. These criteria can be readily applied when evaluating surgical resection specimens. With the use of radiologically guided or endoscopically derived biopsies... |
