Abstract :

Carcinosarcoma of the prostate gland is a highly rare biphasic malignancy which is highly aggressive. Poor prognosis is a characteristic feature of this tumor. This malignancy is not a global phenomenon. Carcinosarcoma of the prostates occur de novo or following hormonal treatment or radiotherapy. It may be that lots of cases of are not detected and reported because many patients with castrate resistant carcinoma of prostate and patients with progressive carcinoma of prostate despite having had radiotherapy do not undergo repeat prostate biopsies to further assess the carcinomas and thus missing dedifferentiation of adenocarcinoma into other variants of prostate cancer.
