Abstract:
We report one rare case of squamous cells prostate tumor. This histological pattern accounts for the 0.5-1% of all prostatic malignancies with certain clinical and evolutive aspects that are from those of prostate adenocarcinoma. Review of the literature seems to have a very poor prognosis such that occurred in our patient who died after 2 month of diagnosis with a poor response to the habitual treatment, perhaps due to this different cell of origin.
