Bawa AS, Singh R, Bansal VK, Punia RS
Abstract
An eighty five year old man presented with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to prostatic enlargement. The total prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels were 2250 ng/ml. Histopathology examination of the transrectal sextant biopsy specimen was reported as adenocarcinoma prostate. A bone scan confirmed the presence of widespread metastasis. Bilateral orchiectomy with flutamide therapy i.e. maximal androgen blockade was instituted.
