| description | This report describes the case of a 65-year-old man who presented with gross hematuria and a history of pelvic salvage radiotherapy for prostate cancer. Cystoscopy and transurethral resection of the bladder revealed urothelial carcinoma. Subsequently, disseminated bone metastases were detected with normal prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, and palliative radiotherapy and systemic chemotherapy were administered. Because gross hematuria can appear in both acute/chronic cystitis and bladder cancer in patients who have undergone pelvic radiotherapy for prostate cancer, close follow-up along with a detailed evaluation is needed. In addition, because prostate cancer disease progression with normal PSA levels may be associated with specific pathological findings, a detailed evaluation of symptoms and a careful review of pathologic reports are important. |
