Splenic Metastases in Prostate Adenocarcinoma - A Case Report with Radiological Review of Patterns of Metastases in Prostate Adenocarcinoma. -

A Ca prostate account for about 25% of new cancers in men.Ca prostate metastases occurs by direct spread, lymphatic spread and haematogenous spread. Direct spread occurs to adjoining organs. Lymphatic spread occurs to lymph nodes. Haematogenous spread commonly occurs in bones and rarely in lungs, liver, brain, spleen, adrenal glands, kidneys, muscles, pancreas, and salivary glands. Liver, spleen and lungs are atypical metastatic sites of CA prostate. We present a case of 58 years old male patient presenting with multiple retroperitoneal lymph nodes, extensive mixed osteoblastic and osteolytic skeletal metastases and multiple splenic metastases.
