Abstract:
Squamous cell carcinoma of prostate is extremely rare form of cancer which seems to differ from the common prostatic adenocarcinoma in its origin, its more aggressive behavior and poor prognosis. We report a case of prostatic squamous cell carcinoma in 79-year-old man who complained of acute urinary retention. Histological diagnosis revealed squamous cell carcinoma of prostate.
