title: Endobronchial metastases from prostatic carcinoma.
abstract: Prostatic carcinoma presenting with pulmonary symptoms is unusual. We describe the case of a 59-year-old man whose disseminated prostate cancer was diagnosed with bronchoscopy. To our knowledge, this represents the second reported case of prostate cancer that manifested with endobronchial symptoms. The importance of this entity and clinical and therapeutic aspects are also discussed.
