[Ductal Adenocarcinoma of the prostate with infiltration of the bladder. Can radical cystectomy and antiandrogen therapy cure the disease?].

Ductal adenocarcinoma of the prostate is a rare entity. The lack of correlation between the prostate-specific antigen value and the tumor stage, as well as early dissemination, are major differences from acinar cancer. Due to a lack of early symptoms, the tumor is often found in an advanced stage. Urinary obstruction and hematuria lead to clinical assessment. The characteristic tumor growth near the seminal colliculus can yield a negative digital rectal examination. Despite a lack of treatment guidelines, authors recommend an aggressive surgical concept. First approaches include radical prostatectomy, transurethral resection, and high-dose radiotherapy. Subsequent androgen deprivation is recommended. We report the case of a 64-year-old man with ductal prostate cancer who underwent radical cystectomy followed by androgen deprivation therapy. This is the first such case reported in both the German and the English literature.
