Abstract

Rhabdomyosarcoma is the fifth most common type of soft tissue solid tumor in children and the most common in the last two decades. Rhabdomyosarcoma of the urogenital organ is a rare mesenchymal tumor, covering 22% of all Rhabdomyosarcoma cases. The two most common histologic types are alveolar and embryonal, whereas botryoid and spindle cells are rarely found. We reported a case of embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma of the prostate. In this study, we improved the understanding of Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma of the prostate on 23 years old male who had a history of swelling in the perineal area and a history of falling from a height in the groin area 5 months before. The patient complains of the difficulty of urinating and hematuria one month after falling. We underwent drainage of the swelling area, found pus 100cc and took a sample for pathological examination. The result was embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma. Prostate volume was 122cc, PSA 5,32 and PSAD 0,04. The CT scan result was solid mass size 15x8x18 cm at perineum enhance to the pelvic cavity, push the bladder to the superior, rectum to posterior, and urethra posterior to the left side. We diagnosed this patient as Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma prostate T2bG1N0M0 (stage 3) group 3 and intermediate-risk group. The patient underwent VAC chemotherapy based on D.9803 (IRS V) protocol and planned radiotherapy, but it stopped at halfway because of profuse bleeding. Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma is an aggressive tumor, especially in adults. However, there was limited evidence and guideline to diagnose and manage the disease.

Abstract

A skeletal-related event (SRE) is an event occurring due to bone metastasis in prostate cancer. SREs are usually marked by pain, pathological fractures, spinal cord compression, hypercalcemia, or bone metastasis requiring radiotherapy or operation. Case I: A 64-year-old male was diagnosed with a pathological fracture of the left femur. Thoracal CT scan showed osteoblastic lesions in the thoracal vertebrae, sternum, clavicle, and humeral head. Spinal MRI showed destruction of the cervical to sacral vertebral bodies. The histopathological result with Adenocarcinoma Gleason scores 8 (4+4) and an initial prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level of 689,7 ng/dL. Afterward, subcapsular orchiectomy was performed. However, his PSA level was still high (>100 ng/dL) even after serum testosterone had reached a castration level. The patient died during the first chemotherapy using docetaxel. Case II: A 61-year-old male was diagnosed with inferior paraplegia and neurogenic bladder, paraparesis, urinary retention, and pain in the flank area. Spinal MRI showed a pathological compression fracture of the 8th thoracic vertebrae. Thoracal CT scan showed costal and 8th thoracal vertebrae destruction as well as multiple nodules in the lungs. Histological results with Adenocarcinoma Gleason score 9 (4+5) and an initial PSA level of 750 ng/dL. Afterward, subcapsular orchiectomy was performed. Serum testosterone reached castration level with the lowest PSA concentration of 21.6 g/dL. The patient declined chemotherapy and agreed to palliative treatment. He died one year after diagnosis. A high PSA level (>500 ng/dL) could potentially be used as a predictor for severe SRE.
