Signs and symptoms include obstructive, neurologic and constitutional symptoms like bone pain, abdominal pain, hematochezia, and hematuria later followed by symptoms of paraneoplastic syndromes like ectopic ACTH secretion and inappropriate ADH secretion and myasthenic syndrome. Approximately, 75% of patients have advanced disease at diagnosis. The small number of patients in the literature prevents a consensus for an optimal treatment option. Because small cell carcinomas of the prostate and lung are identical, treatment options are similar. Chemotherapy is the mainstay of the treatment. Cisplatin/etoposide chemotherapy is frequently used. External radiotherapy is used with combination chemotherapy for local control in the limited disease, as well as for palliation in extensive disease.
