Xanthogranulomatous prostatitis masquerading as prostate cancer: a case report and literature review
摘要
Objectives
Xanthogranulomatous prostatitis (XGP) and prostate cancer (PCa) are difficult to distinguish based on clinical presentation and imaging, and diagnosis relies on pathological biopsy.
Patients and MethodsA case report of XGP, accompanied by a literature review.
ResultsWe report one case of XGP and summarize the clinical features of 28 previously reported cases.
ConclusionThe fPSA/tPSA ratio, PSA detection and PET-CT may be useful tools for differentiating XGP from PCa. Diabetes may contribute to the development of XGP.
