Resumen

El tumor de células granulares (TCG) es una neoplasia de derivación neural, relativamente frecuente en localización subcutánea y en cavidad oral. En próstata es excepcional, con un solo caso descrito en la literatura indexada de las últimas tres décadas. Presentamos el caso de un varón de 63 años con clínica de prostatismo, próstata aumentada de tamaño e incremento de cifras de PSA sérico, al que en biopsia transrectal por aguja se le diagnostica TCG. Dada la excepcionalidad de la neoplasia no existe un protocolo de actuación establecido. Planteamos el dilema clínicopatológico que representa el diagnóstico de una neoplasia de estas características y proponemos la actitud más adecuada a seguir.

In prostate gland is exceptional, with only one case reported on the indexed literature of the last three decades. We report a case of a 63-year-old man presented with urinary complaints, enlarged prostate and increased PSA levels. The patient subsequently underwent transrectal needle biopsy which revealed GCT. The clinicpathological dilemma originated after this diagnosis is discused and the most suitable follow-up is proposed.
