Transitional cell carcinoma of the prostate in cystoprostatectomy specimens removed for bladder cancer.
Journal of Urology 1989 Februrary
Specimens from 84 radical cystectomies for bladder carcinoma performed between January 1984 and July 1986 were reviewed to characterize the involvement of the prostate with transitional cell carcinoma. Whole-mount sectioning of the prostate was performed at 4 mm. intervals and processed in the same manner as radical prostatectomy specimens. A total of 36 patients (43 per cent) had transitional cell carcinoma of the prostate: 94 per cent of these had prostatic urethra involvement and 6 per cent had a normal prostatic urethra but transitional cell carcinoma was present in the periurethral structures. In situ prostatic duct or acini, ejaculatory duct and seminal vesicle involvement occurred, respectively, in 67, 8 and 17 per cent of the patients with prostatic involvement. Of the patients with prostatic involvement 39 per cent had stromal invasion (22 per cent focal and 17 per cent diffuse invasion). The incidence of carcinoma in situ of the bladder neck or trigone (59 per cent), previous intravesical chemotherapy (59 per cent) and ureteral carcinoma (79 per cent) was significantly increased in patients with prostatic involvement. In patients with carcinoma in situ of the trigone or bladder neck, or in whom previous intravesical chemotherapy treatments have failed prostatic involvement should be suspected so that this disease can be detected before stromal invasion occurs.
