Abstract

Small cell carcinoma of prostate is a rare malignant tumour of prostate. The therapeutic implications of this finding are of significance because tumours demonstrating this phenotype usually represent an inherently endocrine-resistant subtype and, in view of their different clinical and biologic properties compared with the usual adenocarcinoma of the prostate, these tumours usually require different treatment strategies.
