Prostatic stromal sarcomas (PSS) are rare solid organ mesenchymal sarcomas. PSS may pose difficult diagnostic challenges on fine needle aspiration biopsy. We report a 48-year-old man diagnosed with metastatic high grade prostatic stromal sarcoma by a CT-scan guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy of a right lower lung lobe nodule. We reviewed the literature on the epidemiologic, cyto-histological, and immunophenotypic findings and discussed the differential diagnosis for this rare entity.
前列腺基质肉瘤(PSS)是罕见的实体器官间充质肉瘤。PSS在细针穿刺活检时可能带来诊断难题。我们报告一名48岁男性,通过对右下肺叶结节进行CT引导下细针穿刺(FNA)活检诊断为转移性高级别前列腺基质肉瘤。我们回顾了关于该疾病流行病学、细胞组织学和免疫表型特征的文献,并讨论了这一罕见疾病的鉴别诊断。
