Prostate cancer is a common malignancy in males. It rarely occurs before the age of 50 years and the incidence increases through the ninth decade of life. 1 Ninety percent of the new cases of prostate cancer are expected to be diagnosed at local or regional stages, for which 5-year relative survival approaches 100%. 2 Advanced T stage is characterized by extension of the tumor outside the prostatic capsule to invade nearby structures such as the bladder, the seminal vesicles, the ureters and the pelvic side walls. 1 Further local extension is rare. We are reporting a patient with locally advanced prostatic carcinoma who presented for the first time by a perianal swelling. We believe this is the first case to be reported in literature.
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.
