Squamous cell carcinoma of the prostate

Abstract: Squamous cell carcinoma of the prostate is rare, accounting for 0.5-1% of all prostatic cancers. It is highly aggressive and responds poorly to any mode of therapy. We present a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the prostate that developed in a patient with prostatic adenocarcinoma following radiation therapy.

“…Adenocarcinoma of the cervix comprises only about 10-15% of all cervical carcinomas, and 70% are HPV-18 positive [6,7]. Squamous cell carcinoma of the prostate is extremely rare, comprising only 0.5-1% of all diagnosed prostate cancers [8]. Previous studies on HPV and prostate cancer have identified HPV DNA with highly varying prevalences [2][3][4][5]9].…”

“…Nevertheless, some data are available on potential secondary malignancies in other sites: hematologic malignancies [12,13,35], sarcoma [1,8,10,30,38,40,45,48,50], malignant fibrous histiocytoma [33] and squamous cell carcinoma of prostate [32,34]. Within the larger trials nonconcordant increases in the risk rates for sarcoma [6,44,51], hematologic malignancies [36], urogenital cancer [22], lung cancer [6,24,36], melanoma [36,37], gastrointestinal [36] and cerebral malignancies [36] were reported.…”
