Synchronous occurrence of lymphomas and other cancers, mostly carcinomas are well established. The most of cases describe chronic lymphocytic leukemia as the leading lymphoproliferative disease with the tendency towards secondary malignancies development. Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) has been described in only 2 cases to co-occur with prostate adenocarcinoma (PAC). There are scarce data about the connection between MCL and urology cancers. We presented the first case of synchronous occurrence of MCL and PAC in the same patient in Serbia.
