  • Title: Liver and prostate adenocarcinoma: an "estrogen-free" environment?
    Author: Guice SL, Glenn JF, Paulson DF.
    Journal: Urology; 1978 Feb; 11(2):175-8. PubMed ID: 628997.
    Abstract:
    We believe that the probable "estrogen-free" site which is present in the liver while a patient is on estrogens gives a conductive environment for local growth of prostate malignancy. We report 1 patient who improved with local irradiation and 2 others who stabilized and symptomatically improved with chemotherapy. Hopefully, future reports will shed more light on the treatment of hepatic metastases from prostatic adenocarcinoma.
