The cystic form of prostate adenocarcinoma can present unexpected symptoms, and management can be difficult because of the local advanced stage of the disease. A unique feature of this case is the surgical local cancer treatment. In this clinical case, we describe the literature surrounding this rare form of neoplasm. We present a clinical case of a rare form of prostate cancer in a 71-year-old male who was admitted to ER with acute urinary retention. A huge obstructing prostatic cyst was revealed. After successful trial-without-catheter, the patient underwent transperineal cyst draining and this restored urination. PSAt was increased up to 55 ng/mL. The cystic wall biopsy revealed adenocarcinoma with a Gleason score of 8 (4+4) (Gleason Group IV), and distant metastasis was noticed with PSMA PET/CT. The patient started androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with excellent PSA dynamics in three months. Because of lower urinary tract symptoms, he needed local treatment and underwent radical prostatectomy. A three-month follow-up demonstrated a common post-operative period, mild stress incontinence, and PSAt 0.004 ng/mL. Cystic prostatic carcinoma can manifest as urinary retention and be mistakenly taken for a benign obstructing prostate cyst. Despite the locally advanced tumor, it can be successfully treated locally in highly selected patients.Keywords: prostate cancer, cystic adenocarcinoma, urinary obstruction
