Primary prostate squamous cell malignancies are rare and very aggressive. A 65-year-old man presented to our institution with clinical and radiographic findings concerning for advanced prostatic malignancy. Surgical pathology of the tumor revealed poorly differentiated carcinoma with squamous differentiation, and histopathological markers were positive for markers of squamous differentiation negative for all urothelial and prostatic markers.
