Abstract
A case of primary hemangiopericytoma of the prostate is reported. The patient presented with obstructive uropathy and was diagnosed as “benign prostatic hypertrophy.” A transurethral resection was done and was diagnosed as “cellular leiomyoma.” Obstructive symptoms recurred and skin and pubic bone involvement appeared 2 months later. Light and electron microscopy of the repeat transurethral resection and biopsy of the perineal mass confirmed the diagnosis of hemangiopericytoma of the prostate.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
