title: [Transitional cells carcinoma of the prostate. Contribution of 1 case].
abstract: The revision of one case of transitional cell carcinoma of the prostate, studied by the Department of Pathology of the Hospital General y Clínico de Tenerife, comparing the results with those in the foreign bibliography. The authors discussed the possibility that the tumoration had it's origin in the periurethral ducts at the expense of the "basal" or "reserve" cells. Therefore the symptomatology is inespecific, for which we have-special emphasis in the histologic study of the lesion as diagnostic means. The transurethral resection (TUR) is suitable for the diagnosis and estrogenic therapy doesn't seem to give good results.
