Prostatic Carcinosarcoma with Lung Metastases

الملخص EN

Carcinosarcoma of the prostate is an uncommon malignancy with poor long-term prognosis.

The cancer is typically discovered at an advanced stage, and with less than 100 reported cases, there is limited literature concerning treatment options.

Our patient presented with a history of benign prostatic hypertrophy, erectile dysfunction, and nocturia.

Biopsy of his prostate indicated that the patient had prostatic adenocarcinoma, but histopathology after prostatectomy revealed carcinosarcoma.

It has been over six years since this patient’s diagnosis of carcinosarcoma.

Over this span of time, he has received a radical prostatectomy, radiotherapy, and androgen ablative therapy.

The patient also developed multiple lung metastases that have been treated with video-assisted thoracic surgery and stereotactic body radiosurgery.

Overall, he has remained unimpaired and in good condition despite his aggressive form of cancer.
