ABSTRACT
The most common metastatic sites of prostate cancer were bone, lymph nodes, liver, or thorax et al. This paper reported a 75-year-old patient who was initially diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. After 12 months Geraldine + Bicaluamide and six months of abiraterone therapy, imaging reexamination revealed malignant lesion in the left calyces. Then he developed severe abdominal pain and was diagnosed with acute renal rupture and bleeding. Emergent surgery of left kidney and ureter resection was performed and postoperative pathology confirmed renal calyceal and ureteral metastatic tumor from prostate cancer. One month after operation, PSA reduced to the lowest level of 2.7 ng/ml. When hydronephrosis occurs in patients with advanced prostate cancer, we should be highly vigilant that it might metastasize to the renal calyx, renal pelvis or proximal ureter.
