A Case of Prostate Cancer in Lynch Syndrome

A 43-year-old man presented to his primary care physician in January 2013 for a routine comprehensive physical evaluation. On initial presentation, he reported feeling well with no complaints. Review of systems was negative. The patient denied any symptoms of constitutional weight loss, fatigue, pelvic pain, urinary symptoms, hematuria, or change in sexual function. His past medical history was significant for cutaneous lipomas, diverticulosis, and colon polyps, including a tubulovillous adenoma and a tubular adenoma removed during colonoscopies in 2004 and 2012, respectively (Fig.  1).
