Papers・Description | Treatment-related neuroendocrine-differentiated prostate cancer (NEPC) is a rare tumor entity that transdifferentiates from adenocarcinoma as an adaptive response to androgen receptor pathway inhibition. We report a 79-year-old male with treatment-related NEPC, presenting as rectal bleeding after hormonal therapy. MRI showed a 51 × 52 × 65 mm tumor occupying almost the whole prostate gland and invading the seminal vesicle and rectum as moderately heterogeneous hypointensity on T2-weighted image, restricted diffusion on apparent diffusion coefficient map and diffusion-weighted imaging, and heterogeneous enhancement on Gd-enhanced T1-weighted image. .. |
