Adenocarcinoma of prostate with pleomorphic giant cells is very rarely encountered entity. It is necessary to identify this variant due to its highly aggressive clinical course and bad prognosis. Though this variant has been described in other sites, very few cases has been reported in the prostate till date. We report one such case with typical features with discussion on the differential diagnosis that must be considered when such case is encountered.
