title: Bilateral pulmonary alveolar infiltrate and prostate tumour in a 54-year-old man.
abstract: THIS CASE STUDY DESCRIBES THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN TWO RARE ENTITIES: pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) and embryonic rhabdomyosarcoma of the prostate in a 54 year old male presenting with pulmonary symptoms and obstructive urinary symptoms. The prostate tumour was treated with a radical cystectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The patient did not wish to have treatment for his pulmonary disease and died 1 year after surgery as a result of intra-abdominal spread of the neoplasm.
