Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Primary extranodal lymphoma of the prostate is an exceptionally rare clinical presentation.
  • Lymphomas typically affect lymph nodes, making prostate involvement uncommon.

Observation:

  • Three cases of primary extranodal lymphoma of the prostate are presented.
  • Patients exhibited symptoms of prostatism, including an enlarged, hard prostate.
  • Associated urinary findings included pyuria and hematuria.

Findings:

  • The study highlights the diagnostic challenges of this rare condition.
  • Symptoms of prostatism, a palpable hard prostate, pyuria, and hematuria in younger patients are key indicators.
  • Urine cytologic examination is proposed as a valuable diagnostic tool.

Implications:

  • Early recognition of these specific clinical signs is crucial for timely diagnosis.
  • Urine cytology can aid in the early detection of primary prostate lymphoma.
  • This finding may prompt earlier investigation and treatment for affected individuals.
