He had a TURP 1 year ago for presumed prostatic hyperplasia, but tissue fragments examined by a pathologist revealed a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. He received local irradiation to the prostate: however, PSA levels increased to 10 (normal is less than 4). A bone scan showed bony metastates. Bilateral orchiectomy was advised, but refused. Alternative hormonal treatment with Lupron and flutamide to decrease testosterone production will be offered. 1. What is the patient's diagnosis? a. Prostate cancer b. Bone cancer c. Testicular cancer D. BPH 2. What procedure revealed the diagnosis? a. irradiation b. removal of the testicles c. bone scan d. Transurethral resection of the prostate. 3. What type of drug treatment was offered to the patient? a. Standard chemotherapy with cytotoxic agents b. Androgens c. Antiandrogen drugs d. PSA treatment

Reаd the cаse study аnd answer the questiоns. Case repоrt: A 22-year-оld male presents with a scrotal mass that does not transilluminate. An orchiectomy reveals embryonal carcinoma with teratoma. Chest x-ray and lung tomograms are normal. Serum AFP (alpha-fetoprotein, a protien secreted by tumor cells), is elevated. Abdominal CT scan reveals minimal retroperitoneal lymphadenapathy. Retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy indicates 4 of 42 nodes positive for embryonal carcinoma. Six months after the node dissection the patient remains asymptomatic but his chest x-ray reveals pulmonary metastases. AFP is slightly elevated. Chemotherapy (cisplatin, vinblastine, and bleomycin) is given over 12 weeks. One month after completion of chemotherapy a thoracotomy is done and residual lung lesions are removed. He remains free of disease 32 months after the start of chemotherapy. 1. What is the patient's diagnosis? a. prostate cancer b. testicular cancer c. benign prostatic hyperplasia d. lung cancer 2. What was the primary method of treatment? a. chemotherapy b. radiation therapy c. surgical removal of the prostate gland d. surgical removal of the testis 3. What other surgical procedure was done to stage the patient's condition? a. removal of tumor from the lung b. chest x-ray c. removal of pelvic lymph nodes d. removal of lymph nodes behind the membrane lining the abdominal cavity 4. What treatment was initially given for spread of the tumor to the lungs? a. drug treatment with AFP b. thoracotomy c. chemotherapy d. retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy
