title: [MALT lymphoma of the prostate: Place of radiotherapy. Case report and discussion].
abstract: We report the case of a patient presenting with MALT (mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue) lymphoma of the prostate, who received an irradiation delivering 30.6 Gy in 17 fractions after transurethral resection. With a follow-up of 6 years, he remained alive and free of disease. In view of the literature and this case report, definitive local irradiation should be administered in this rare disease.
