Prostate cancer, when metastatic, typically involves the axial skeleton. Sphenoidal metastasis is uncommon. We report a rare case of a 75-year-old man who presented with isolated unilateral exophthalmos. Digital rectal examination and serum prostate-specific antigen level were suggestive of metastatic prostate cancer. The prostate biopsy and imaging findings confirmed the source of the exophthalmos as a sphenoidal metastasis of an aggressive prostate adenocarcinoma.
前列腺癌发生转移时,通常会累及中轴骨骼。蝶骨转移较为罕见。我们报告了一例罕见的 75 岁男性病例,其表现为单侧眼球突出。直肠指检和血清前列腺特异性抗原水平提示转移性前列腺癌。前列腺活检和影像学检查结果证实了眼球突出的来源为侵袭性前列腺腺癌的蝶骨转移。
