title: Osteogenic differentiation associated with x-ray therapy for adenocarcinoma of the prostate gland.
abstract: A case of osteogenic differentiation in a prostate gland associated with high-dose x-irradiation for adenocarcinoma is reported. Heterologous cancerous elements in adults are extremely unusual in the prostate and their occurrence after treatment has rarely been documented. The relationship of this lesion to the primary glandular neoplasm is discussed.
