Summary:Background The current study was conducted to investigate the patterns of metastases in men with metastatic prostatic ductal adenocarcinoma (DAC) and recurrence patterns after therapy. Methods All patients with a new diagnosis of DAC with de novo metastases and those with localized disease who developed metastases after treatment and were treated at the study institution from January 2005 to November 2018 were included. All patient and tumor characteristics and outcome data were collected. Results A total of 164 patients (37.7%) had metastatic DAC, including 112 with de novo metastases and 52 who developed metastases after treatment.
