Abstract
Three cases of massive carcinoma of the prostate in negroes are presented. Investigation and treatment were carried out along conventional lines. There was a very good response to treatment initially in that all tumors shrank and became impalpable. Two patients died of recurrent carcinoma at 1 and 2.75 yr respectively. The third has widespread metastases at present controlled by chemotherapy. The possible difference in the behavior of prostatic carcinoma in negroes are discussed.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
