Bone marrow metastases from prostatic cancer-marked cytolytic effect after only a few days of treatment with diethylstilbestrol.

A 42-year-old male patient became hospitalized with severe back pain and marked bleeding tendency from disseminated intravascular coagulation. The bone marrow aspirate showed numerous nests of cancer cells presumably from a prostatic carcinoma. After only 4 days of treatment with diethylstilbestrol his condition was markedly improved, and a new bone marrow aspirate showed extensive necrosis of the cancer cells.
