General

  • Treatment: platinum based therapy.

Subclassification

It is subclassified as per Epstein et al.:[1]

  • Usual prostate adenocarcinoma with neuroendocrine differentiation.
  • Adenocarcinoma with Paneth cell neuroendocrine differentiation.
  • Carcinoid tumour of the prostate.
  • Small cell carcinoma of the prostate gland.
  • Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the prostate.
  • Mixed (small and/or large cell) neuroendocrine carcinoma-acinar adenocarcinoma.
