Abstract

Endobronchial metastasis from a prostate cancer is uncommon. Diagnosis of prostate carcinoma after primary presentation with an endobronchial mass is very rare. The authors describe the case of an 84-year-old man with endobronchial metastases from prostatic carcinoma presenting primarily with pulmonary symptoms. The diagnosis of prostate cancer and endobronchial metastases was made by a bronchoscopic bronchial biopsy and confirmed by immunohistological staining with prostate-specific antigen. The importance of this manifestation along with clinical and therapeutic implications is discussed here.
