Malignant cystosarcoma phyllodes of prostate.

T Yokota, Y Yamashita, Y Okuzono

    Acta Pathologica Japonica
    |May 1, 1984
    PubMed
    Summary

    A rare malignant cystosarcoma phyllodes tumor was found in the prostate of a 45-year-old man. The tumor featured benign cystic elements and a sarcomatous stroma with rhabdomyomatous components, confirmed by immunoperoxidase staining.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pathology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Cystosarcoma phyllodes typically affects the breast.
    • Prostate tumors are diverse, but this specific type is exceptionally rare.

    Observation:

    • A 45-year-old male presented with a unique prostatic tumor.
    • The tumor exhibited a biphasic pattern: benign epithelial/cystic folds and a malignant mesenchymal (sarcomatous) stroma.

    Findings:

    • The sarcomatous stroma contained rhabdomyomatous elements.
    • Immunoperoxidase staining confirmed the prostatic origin of the tumor, distinguishing it from metastatic lesions.

    Implications:

    • This case expands the known sites for cystosarcoma phyllodes.
    • Highlights the importance of advanced diagnostic methods for rare prostatic neoplasms.
