Ureteral metastasis from prostate cancer is rare. The present case report describes an 83-year-old patient with distant metastasis of prostate cancer to the right ureter that caused hydronephrosis. Upon initial examination at our hospital, he presented with a high prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level of 10.0 ng/ml. He was diagnosed with prostate adenocarcinoma, with Gleason score of 10 (5＋5) and clinical staging of cT2aN0M0. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) was performed after 1 year and 7 months of androgen depriation therapy. At 1 year and 4 months after IMRT, PSA increased to 3.068 ng/ml. Computed tomography scan revealed right hydronephrosis and thickening of the right ureter. We could not identify obvious malignant cells on ureteroscopic biopsy, and right nephroureterectomy was performed. Pathological examination revealed ureteral metastasis of prostate cancer. Six months after nephroureterectomy, PSA increased to 3.037 ng/ml. He was diagnosed with castration-resistant prostate cancer and has been treated with enzalutamide. |
