Prostatic carcinoma presenting with pulmonary symptoms is unusual. We describe the case of a 59-year-old man whose disseminated prostate cancer was diagnosed with bronchoscopy. To our knowledge, this represents the second reported case of prostate cancer that manifested with endobronchial symptoms. The importance of this entity and clinical and therapeutic aspects are also discussed.
以肺部症状为表现的前列腺癌并不常见。我们描述了一例59岁男性患者,其播散性前列腺癌通过支气管镜检查得以确诊。据我们所知,这是第二例报告的以支气管内症状为表现的前列腺癌病例。本文还讨论了该疾病的重要性以及临床和治疗方面的问题。
