Background: We aim to correlate multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) of the prostate reporting (Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System [PI-RADS] version 2) with the Gleason score into both radical prostatectomy (RP) specimen and MRI fusion-targeted biopsies (FTB).
Methods: mpMRI of 74 patients who underwent an RP after FTB were retrospectively reviewed. The Gleason score distribution was compared according to the PI-RADS score using the Kruskal-Wallis test.
Unlabelled: Numerous lesions of the prostate, such as atrophy, adenomatous atypical hyperplasia (adenosis) or PIN can be misdiagnosed with prostatic cancer, and confused with ASAP, leading to perform additional biopsies. In such lesions, the pathologist can perform an immunohistochemical study with the anti-high molecular weight cytokeratin antibody CK903 (34bE12), which confirms the absence of basal cells and supports the diagnosis of prostatic cancer.
Aim Of The Study: To compare markers of basal cells (cytokeratin 5/6, p63) and the marker of prostatic carcinomatous glands (p504s) or alpha methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR).
