Summary

Primary seminal vesicle adenocarcinoma is one of the rarest genitourinary cancers. The pathogenesis is unknown and clinical manifestations are protean. There is no defined treatment for this disease and various combinations of surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy and hormonal therapy have been used in the past. Here, we have reported a primary seminal vesicle adenocarcinoma with hepatic metastases, managed with multiagent chemotherapy (oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil based) and androgen ablation (with triptorelin). The key to management of such a case is early diagnosis and multimodal treatment. The reported survival rate continues to be poor even for a localised disease. A consolidated follow-up protocol ensures early diagnosis of recurrent or metastatic disease so that second-line therapy can be started.
