Primary lymphoma of prostate presenting as bladder outflow obstruction.
We report on a patient with prostatic lymphoma who presented with symptoms of bladder neck obstruction. Biopsy specimens from transurethral resection confirmed the diagnosis of prostatic lymphoma. There was no evidence of lymphoma spread. Treatment was by local x-ray therapy to the prostate gland. Since prostatic lymphoma is rare, the clinical literature is briefly reviewed.
