| Abstract: | PURPOSE: This report describes the transrectal ultrasound appearance of squamous cell carcinoma of the prostate. CASE REPORTS: One case of squamous cell carcinoma involving the prostate by extension from a primary urethral carcinoma and a second case of radiation-induced primary prostatic squamous cell carcinoma are presented and the ultrasound findings discussed. CONCLUSIONS: In these 2 cases, squamous cell carcinomas involving the prostate exhibited similar transrectal ultrasound appearances. Both lesions demonstrated an irregular, anterior, relatively hyperechoic appearance. Copyright Copyright 1999 S. Karger AG, Basel |
