Abstract
Introduction
There have been significant modifications in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer management in the last decade, with great changes in the treatment paradigm, even though the disease will ultimately continue to progress despite the currently available treatments.
Case report
A 72-year-old man diagnosed with castration-resistant prostate cancer underwent a bone scintigram that identified metastatic bone lesions. He was treated with abiraterone, with clinical and biochemical response. Follow-up revealed regression of bone metastasis documented in the bone scintigram.
Conclusions
This clinical case shows the particularity of apparent bone lesion regression in the context of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer after treatment with abiraterone acetate that also showed sustained clinical and biochemical response.
