Core Tip	Malignant melanoma of the prostate is rare. To date, 25 studies describing 45 cases have been reported. There is a significant difference in prognosis between primary and secondary cases. We report a case of secondary malignant prostate melanoma with primary gastric disease. We also review the literature on 10 cases of primary prostate melanoma, and found that most cases did not receive sufficient tests and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography computed tomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT) was false-negative. We conclude that caution should be used in the diagnosis of primary prostate melanoma, and 18F-FDG-PET/CT may result in false-negative detection of melanoma.
