Abstract
GARRIDO ABAD, Pablo et al. Blue prostatic nevus: Case report. Arch. Esp. Urol. [online]. 2007, vol.60, n.5, pp.593-595. ISSN 0004-0614.
Objective: To state the scarce incidence of this prostatic pathology and the relative confusion with terminology applied to the presence of intraprostatic melanin pigments. Methods/Results: 66-year-old patient with elevated serum PSA with the diagnosis of prostatic blue nevus after biopsy. Conclusions: This diagnostic finding has not clinical or prognostic significance. They are benign lesions that must not be confused with other similar more aggressive lesions.
