Popis: Prostatic sarcoma is a rare pathologic feature accounting for 0.1-0.2% of prostatic neoplasms. This condition can occur at different ages and there is no clear consensus regarding the treatment. The authors report a case of a giant prostatic sarcoma in a patient aged 62 years old who complains of voiding symptoms and a pelvic and abdominal mass. The mass did not respond to chemotherapy and radiation therapy was not available. The patient presented therefore a therapeutic problem due to big size of the tumor that does not allow a surgical removal.
