A case report of small-cell carcinoma of the prostate with ectopic adrenocorticotropic-hormone (ACTH) syndrome and hypokalemia

Our case referred to the treatment regimen for small-cell lung cancer, suggesting that the treatment regimen for small-cell lung cancer is effective for small-cell prostate cancer, but tumors can quickly become resistant. The efficacy of adrenal steroidogenesis inhibitors in treating ectopic ACTH syndrome (EAS) is demonstrated, underscoring that judicious treatment decisions can effectively prolong patient survival and enhance their quality of life. We present this case series based on a list of AME case series reports.
