Abstract:

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) revealing a prostatic adenocarcinoma is rare. Most of the case are limited to biological abnormalities. We report a case of a 73 year old man with metastatic prostatic carcinoma and CIVD. The patient consulted for epistaxis and ecchymosis with thrombocytopenia and low coagulate factors. The prostatic specific antigen was 2200 ng/ml and fine needle aspiration of bone marrow biopsy detected metastatic cells. The patients received hormonotherapy, heparine and antithrombine III with a good follow up. About this case, we discuss the management of the patient with metastatic prostatic cancer and CIVD.

Disorders of the Male Reproductive System

Men's health issues are increasingly recognized as significant, with several conditions posing common threats. Among these, testicular cancer is especially prevalent in younger men, particularly those aged 20 to 35 years. The disease often manifests as a painless mass in the testicles, sometimes accompanied by a sensation of heaviness or a dull ache.
Prostate disorders are another major concern. These conditions can impair urinary flow due to the prostate's location around the urethra. Symptoms...
