<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Prostatic stromal tumor of uncertain malignant potential (STUMP) is a rare disease that may coexist with prostate stromal sarcoma (PSS). We aimed to analyze the histological and clinical features of STUMP. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Twenty-three patients diagnosed with STUMP from 2008 to 2019 were included. Clinicopathological and follow-up information was collected. In the subgroup analysis, we divided the patients into a pure STUMP group (<i>N</i> = 18) and a mixed STUMP (STUMP coexisting with PSS) group (<i>N</i> = 5). Student’s <i>t</i> test was used to compare the 2 groups. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Patients had a mean age of 55.5 ± 19.4 years and an average follow-up time of 42.3 months. The mean prostate volume was 109.2 ± 73.5 cm<sup>3</sup>, and the mean prostate-specific antigen was 8.03 ± 10.5 ng/mL. In the subgroup analysis, 16.7% (2/12) of pure STUMP patients had disease progression, while 100% (3/3) of mixed STUMP patients suffered from recurrence. Compared with the pure STUMP group, the mixed STUMP group was younger (37.2 vs. 60.6 years, <i>p</i> = 0.013) and had lower expression of estrogen receptor and progesterone receptor (<i>p</i> = 0.004 and <i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.001, respectively). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> STUMP is a rare disease with a relatively good prognosis. However, there is still a possibility of disease progression or coexistence with stromal sarcoma. Timely diagnosis and regular monitoring may be helpful in improving treatment outcomes.

<p class="abstract"><span lang="EN-US">Cellular angiofibroma of the vulva is a benign tumor of mesenchymal origin in female and male genital tract composed of stromal spindle cells and mixture of adipose tissue, prominently vascular in nature. Here we present a case of recurrent cellular angiofibroma in a 27 years old young woman which was the 5th time recurrence when she presented to us. Diagnosis was confirmed by MRI, histopathology study and immunohistochemistry. With wide excision of tumor followed by GnRH analogue therapy post operatively, she is now tumour free even after 20 months of surgery.</span></p>

Prostatic stromal tumor of uncertain malignant potential (STUMP), characterized by an atypical, unique stromal proliferation of the prostate, is often difficult to be differentiated from other nonepithelial neoplastic lesions. We present a unique case of recurrent STUMP after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) with concurrent prostatic adenocarcinoma. Patients diagnosed with prostatic STUMP should be followed up closely, for it may recur and invade adjacent organs after TURP shortly. Concurrent prostatic adenocarcinoma can be found in STUMP patients, and there may be some potential mechanisms which promote the simultaneous occurrence of the 2 tumors.
