Secondary prostatic neoplasms are usually the result of direct invasion by neighboring organs or infiltration from hematological malignancies. Gastric adenocarcinoma metastasizing in the prostate is extremely rare and to our knowledge only seven cases have been documented in the literature. We report another case of a patient who underwent transurethral resection of the prostate for bladder outflow obstruction which incidentally revealed an occult metastatic adenocarcinoma from an undiagnosed gastric cancer.
We report a rare case of primary non-Hodgkin's B-cell lymphoma of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type occurring in the urinary bladder. A 70-year-old woman presented with gross haematuria, and an abdominal CT scan revealed a bladder tumour which was resected endoscopically. Histopathological diagnosis was confirmed by immunohistochemical staining and treated successfully with radiotherapy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
