The experience at the University of Iowa Hospitals with 12 patients having sarcoma of the prostate is described. Although the total number of patients is small, two distinct groups can be identified. The infants, children, and young adults presenting with this malignancy had a very poor survival regardless of the therapy administered. However, the older men have generally done well, surviving several years following therapy for the relief of lower urinary tract obstruction. The longest surviving patient was treated by transurethral prostectomy followed by transperineal instillation of radioactive gold. A program of combination therapy utilizing surgery, external irradiation, and triple chemotherapy is suggested for use in children and young adults with prostatic sarcoma.
