Malignant mesenchymoma arising from the prostate in Gardner's syndrome.
The first case of a primary malignant mesenchymoma arising from the prostate in Gardner's syndrome is reported. The neoplasm occurred in a 40-year-old man with a chief complaint of urinary retention. Biopsy findings were primary malignant mesenchymoma. Total cystectomy and lymphadenectomy were performed, but the patient died due to multiple metastases within 6 months. He had undergone a colectomy for polyposis coli 17 years earlier and had mandibular osteomas. This was the first case of malignant mesenchymoma arising from the prostate in Gardner's syndrome.
