Abstract
To study the diagnosis and treatment of small cell neuroendocrine prostatic carcinoma. A 60-year-old patient with pure small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of prostate was admitted because of dysuria for 1 month. Digital rectal examination showed the prostate was hard. Result of histological biopsy were consistent with a diagnosis of small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of prostate. Combination chemotherapy with radiotherapy regimen were proved to be effective. The patient′s symptoms were relieved obviously. The patient died about 15 months after admission. Small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of prostate has a very poor prognosis. Systemic chemotherapy is the most important treatment available.
Key words:
Prostatic neoplasms; Small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma; Chemotherapy
