Prostatic ductal adenocarcinoma, is an uncommon entity in the spectrum of prostatic carcinoma. Clinically it is different from common prostatic acinar adenocarcinoma. It is usually more aggressive than prostatic acinar adenocarcinoma. We are presenting a case report on prostatic ductal adenocarcinoma, a cystic variant of prostatic carcinoma in a 55-year-old man who complained of obstructive urinary symptoms with mildly raised prostate-specific antigen (PSA). On further evaluation in our radiology department a cystic lesion with enhancing polypoidal soft tissue component was noted in prostatic parenchyma. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of ductal adenocarcinoma.
