Malignant phyllodes tumor of the prostate

Abstract: Phyllodes tumor of the prostate is rare. We have recently experienced a case of phyllodes tumor of the prostate in a 57-year-old man who complained of urinary retention for 1 year. The epithelial components were positive reactivity for prostate specific antigen. The stromal cells showed nuclear atypia with increased mitotic activity. The tumor was diagnosed as a malignant phyllodes tumor as it invaded into the urinary bladder and rectum, and grew rapidly immediately after operation. We describe the morphologic… Show more

“…The recurrent sarcoma in the case reported by Young et al 15 was positive for vimentin and desmin, but negative for the other muscle markers: SMA and muscle common antigen. Other cases 19,28,29 showed a similar immunohistochemical profile to that reported by Young et al 15 In contrast, the case reported by Yum et al 7 showed positive reactions to vimentin, and the muscle markers muscle-specific actin, and desmin. Yum et al called it leiomyosarcoma arising in phyllodes tumor.…”

“…Yum et al called it leiomyosarcoma arising in phyllodes tumor. From these cases 15,19,28,29,30,[38][39][40] it appears that PSS can affect patients with a wide age range, and the prognosis is dependent on the grade and stage of disease.…”

“…However, phyllodes tumors of the prostate, even when benign, frequently recur and spread to contiguous organs and occasionally metastasize 6,7. Sauder8 reported a local recurrence of a benign phyllodes tumor after simple resection and radical prostatectomy, and Bostwick et al3 reported that about 50% of patients with a low grade phyllodes tumor had a recurrence within 2 years of surgery.…”

“…17,[51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61] There are at least two reported cases of stromal sarcoma of the 'phyllodes type' arising in the seminal vesicle without involvement of the prostate. 62 suggesting a potential for STUMPs to dedifferentiate into sarcomas in rare cases and justifying the term 'malignant potential' for STUMPs.…”
