A case of granuloma which developed following a subcutaneous injection of leuprorelin acetate is presented. A prominent induration developed at the site of injection with a three-month type preparation, and radical retropubic prostatectomy and simultaneous excision of the granulomas were requested by the patient since they were large, infectious and painful. Our experience may indicate the necessity of conversion from leuprorelin acetate to other drugs (e.g., goserelin acetate, castration) if a local induration, caused by a subcutaneous injection of leuprorelin acetate, has developed to a large granuloma. |
