Abstract

Adenoid cystic/Basal-cell carcinoma (ACC/BCC) of the prostate is a rare histological type exhibiting various morphological characteristics and an optimal treatment has not yet been established. We report the case of a 63-year-old patient who complained of incomplete
bladder emptying and recurrent urinary infection six months after transurethral resection of a high-grade urothelial bladder tumor.
The clinical features, digital rectal examination, serum PSA levels, and multiparametric MRI did not refer to any suspicious prostatic
lesions and cystoscopy revealed bladder neck hypertrophy, and yellowish zones in the prostatic urethra. Transurethral resection
was performed due to these findings and histopathological analysis showed poorly differentiated ACC/BCC of the prostate. Even
though there is no proven mutual correlation between ACC/BCC and urothelial bladder cancer, the appearance of obstructive urinary
symptoms, bladder-neck hypertrophy, and macroscopic changes in prostatic urethra should be reconsidered for transurethral resection
biopsy considering the possibility of ACC/BCC
