Aggressive course in a patient with mucin-producing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate: A case report and review of the literature

Abstract

Prostate cancer is one of the frequently seen types of cancers in men. The most frequent histological type of prostate cancer is the acinar adenocarcinoma. Mucin-producing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate is a very rare subtype. The mucin-producing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate has microscopic similarities with colon and bladder adenocarcinoma. It has a more aggressive clinical course and does not respond to androgen deprivation therapy. A 77-year -old male patient diagnosed with mucinous prostate cancer was presented in the current case report.
