Primary mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is a rare malignancy. We found only 8 cases of MALT lymphoma in literature.
We report here another case of primary prostatic MALT lymphoma which is presented by hematuria and diagnosed primarily as BPH. Immunohistochemistry studies demonstrate the diagnosis and MALT lymphoma. Six months after starting the treatment the patient was alive and well.
Prostatic MALTomas are mainly presented with urinary obstruction or hematuria and have an indolent growth with a good prognosis.
原发性黏膜相关淋巴组织(MALT)淋巴瘤是一种罕见的恶性肿瘤。我们在文献中仅发现8例MALT淋巴瘤病例。
我们在此报告另一例原发性前列腺MALT淋巴瘤病例,该病例以血尿为表现,最初被诊断为良性前列腺增生。免疫组织化学研究证实了诊断为MALT淋巴瘤。开始治疗6个月后,患者存活且状况良好。
前列腺MALT瘤主要表现为尿路梗阻或血尿,生长缓慢,预后良好。
