Prostate stromal tumor with prostatic cysts after transurethral resection of the prostate: A case report

BACKGROUND A prostatic stromal tumor is deemed to be a rare oncology condition.Based on the retrospective analysis of clinical data and scientific literature review,a case of prostatic stromal tumor was reported in this article to explore the diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of this rare disease.CASE SUMMARY The present case involved an older male patient who was admitted to our department for a medical consultation of dysuria.Serum prostate-specific antigen was 8.30 ng/mL,Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging suggested evident enlargement of the prostate and multiple cystic developments internally.Considering that the patient was an elderly male with a poor health status,transurethral resection of the prostate was performed to improve the symptoms of urinary tract obstruction.Furthermore,based on histopathologic examination and immunohistochemical staining,the patient was pathologically diagnosed with prostatic stromal tumor.The patient did not receive any further adjuvant therapy following surgery leading to a clinical recommendation that the patient should be followed up on a long-term basis.However,during the recent follow-up assessment,the patient demonstrated recurrence of lower urinary tract symptoms and gross hematuria.CONCLUSION Referring to scientific literature review,we believe that the management of these lesions requires a thorough assessment of the patient.Furthermore,the treatment of prostate stromal tumors should be based on the imaging examination andpathological classification. Active surgical treatment is of great significance to theprognosis of patients, and subsequent surveillance after the treatment iswarranted.

Rectal prolapse in a 30-year-old bladder stone male patient:A case report

BACKGROUND Rectal prolapse occurs most commonly in children and middle-aged and elderly women and is relatively rare in young men and is occasionally caused by bladder stones.Severe rectal prolapse,bilateral hydronephrosis,and renal insufficiency caused by bladder stones are rare in a 30-year-old man.CASE SUMMARY We report the case of a 30-year-old male patient with cerebral palsy who presented with a large bladder stone that resulted in severe rectal prolapse,bilateral hydronephrosis,and renal insufficiency.Following a definitive diagnosis,the bladder stone was successfully removed,and his kidney function returned to normal.We assessed the patient’s nutritional status and stone composition and concluded that the main cause was malnutrition.CONCLUSION Rectal prolapse is a rare clinical manifestation of bladder stones,particularly in young adults.Cerebral palsy patients are a vulnerable group in society because of their intellectual disabilities and communicative impairments.Accordingly,besides taking care of their daily diet,abnormal signs in their bodies should receive the doctors’attention in a timely manner.
