A patient with spontaneous regression of urothelial malignancy.
A 65-year-old male presented with prostatic transitional cell carcinoma, metastatic to lungs and lymph nodes. He was treated with palliative radiotherapy to the primary site. No other anticancer treatment was given. Almost 2 years later he is well with no signs or symptoms of progressive disease and the lung metastases seen on his chest radiograph have completely disappeared.
