- Abstract
- Primary prostate sarcomas are rare neoplasms that accounts for less than 0.1% of primary prostate malignancies. Leiomyosarcoma is the most common histologic type in adults, whereas rhabdomyosarcoma is more common in pediatric patients. Historically, long-term survival rates for adult patients with prostate sarcoma are have been poor. So, early diagnosis is very important. Surgery has been the mainstay of treatment. We experienced a case of primary stromal sarcoma of the prostate. We review the literature to discuss the clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic aspects of this uncommon tumor.
