Case 297: Mucinous Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate
RADIOLOGY(2022)
Abstract
History A 70-year-old man was referred to our institution with chronic obstructive urinary symptoms and constipation for 2 years before admission. His medical history was unremarkable. Outside laboratory tests revealed an elevated serum prostate-specific antigen level (21.7 ng/mL [normal range, 0.00-4.00 ng/mL]), and urinalysis results were negative. He was admitted for evaluation of possible prostate cancer. The patient reported no specific symptoms of infection and denied fever, dysuria, hematuria, and abdominal pain. He had no family history of prostate cancer. On physical examination, he was afebrile, and the digital rectal examination was not painful. These findings were evidence of an enlarged prostate and a hard multilobulated mass, which was palpable bilaterally. The urologic team performed MRI of the prostate.
