- Abstract
A 63-year-old man with primary malignant lymphoma of the prostate is presented. The patient underwent total cystoprostatectomy and ileal conduit construction. The specimen revealed malignant lymphoma, diffuse small cleaved cell of the gland. Three months after the operation, local recurrence and enlarged lymph node development were demonstrated by computed tomography. The patient tolerated well a combination chemotherapy of VP-16, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide and prednisolone for 5 cycles. Tumor recurrence and lymph node spread could never be recognized following this drug treatment. The patient has been asymptomatic after this chemotherapy for over 3 years. Copyright © 1991 S.
