Abstract
Prostate adenocarcinoma has a strong tendency to metastasize to bone, paticularly axial skeleton occurs at high frequency in patients with that causing significant morbidity and mortality especially. We present a rare case of prostatic adenocarcinoma having metastatic occipito-parietal bone involvement. Apart from bone, brain is also a common site of metastasis but the involvement of the occipito-parietal bone is extremely unusual. Occipito-parietal bone metastasis from prostatic adenocarcinoma was the initial presentation which was obseved in our patient. This is the first case of its kind in the literature where the prostatic carcinoma had metastasized to the occipito-parietal bone of the skull without any symptomatology of prostatic adenocancer involvement.
Özet
Prostat kanserinin kemiğe metastaz eğilimi oldukça yüksek olmakla beraber sıklıkla aksiyel iskelet sisteminde meydana gelmektedir ve morbidite ve mortaliteye yol açmaktadır. Biz oksipito-paryetal kemik metastazı olan prostat adenokarsinom olgusunu sunuyoruz. Kemik dışında beyin de prostat adenokarsinomun sık görü- len metastazıdır ancak oksipito-parietal kafa kemiği metastazı oldukça nadir gö- rülmektedir. Bu vaka hiçbir semptom ve bulgu vermeden sadece oksipito-paryetal kafa kemiği tutulumu ile seyreden nadir bir prostat adenokarsinom olgusu olmasından dolayı, literatürdeki ilk olgulardan birisidir.
