The most common metastatic site of
prostate cancer is the
bone, followed by the
lung,
bladder,
liver, and
adrenal gland. We
report on a rare case of pancreatic
metastasis from
prostate cancer. A 52-year-old
patient was admitted to the
hospital with epigastric
pain for 20 days.
PET-CT showed malignant lesions in the
prostate and
pancreas, and
prostate and
pancreas puncture biopsies were performed, respectively. The
patient was diagnosed as
prostate cancer with pancreatic
metastasis according to the pathological findings. After undergoing
androgen deprivation
therapy and
docetaxel chemotherapy for 6 cycles, reexamination revealed that the pancreatic
metastases had disappeared.
