Abstract
- Pancreatic metastasis from prostate cancer (PC) is quite rare. Herein, we report the case of a 67-year-old man with pancreatic metastasis from a neuroendocrine differentiated PC (NEDPC), a local recurrence after radical prostatectomy and androgen deprivation therapy for 6 years. Chemoradiotherapy was initiated for the locally recurrent NEDPC, and it had almost disappeared after the therapy. However, rapidly enlarged pancreatic metastasis from the NEDPC was detected 6 months after therapy. There is no standard treatment available for pancreatic metastasis from NEDPC owing to its rarity; hence, further knowledge and clinical experience regarding it are crucial.
