INTRODUCTION: Mucin-producing adenocarcinoma of the prostate is a rare disease that includes prostate adenocarcinoma with mucus production, secondary adenocarcinoma from the bladder or colorectum, and adenocarcinoma from the urothelium of the prostatic urethra. We describe prostate-specific antigen-negative mucin-producing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate. CASE PRESENTATION: The patient had urinary retention and a serum prostate-specific antigen level of 0.74 ng/mL. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a prostate tumor with a mucous component. We diagnosed adenocarcinoma by prostate biopsy and subsequently performed robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. Mucin-producing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate was diagnosed by pathological examinations. Lung metastasis, developing within 3 months after surgery, was treated using chemotherapy. CONCLUSION: Endocrine therapy is ineffective for mucin-producing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Mucin-producing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate diagnosis requires pathological and immunohistochemical analyses. It is important to surgically remove the primary lesion, and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy may provide an effective approach. Multimodal therapy is essential to treat for mucin-producing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate.
