[Prostatic leiomyosarcoma (report of 2 cases)]

The authors report 2 cases of prostatic leiomyosarcoma. The first patient was not operated because of a severely debilitated state and died a fortnight after admission to hospital. The second patient underwent cystoprostatectomy with ilio-obturator lymph node dissection. Resection margins and lymph node dissection were negative and no further treatment was required. With a 10-year follow-up, the clinical and radiological assessment was normal. The diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of this rare prostatic tumour are discusses.
