PURE SMALL CELL CARCINOMA OF THE PROSTATE IS A RARE AND AGGRESSIVE NEOPLASM, WITH ONLY FEW CASES DESCRIBED IN LITERATURE AND POOR PROGNOSIS: mean survival is 5 months. We report the case of a patient with this disease, with special attention to the evolution of neuroendocrine markers as Chromogranine A and neuron-specific enolase during the progression of the tumor, evaluating their possible role in staging and follow up.

前列腺纯小细胞癌是一种罕见且侵袭性强的肿瘤，文献中仅有少数病例报道，预后较差：平均生存期为5个月。我们报告了1例该疾病患者的病例，特别关注肿瘤进展过程中嗜铬粒蛋白A和神经元特异性烯醇化酶等神经内分泌标志物的变化，评估它们在分期和随访中的可能作用。
