Article Synopsis
  • Atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP) is found in about 5% of prostate biopsies, and doctors usually suggest getting another biopsy within 3-6 months.
  • A study looked at many articles to find out if waiting longer for a repeat biopsy is safe and what happens in those cases.
  • The results showed that only about 12% of patients had serious prostate cancer after waiting for the repeat biopsy, suggesting it's okay to wait longer without much risk.

Purpose: We investigated the association of MRI findings in men with a previous diagnosis of atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP) or multifocal high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) with pathologic findings on repeat biopsy.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients with ASAP/multifocal HGPIN undergoing a repeat biopsy in the Michigan Urological Surgery Improvement Collaborative registry. We included men with and without an MRI after the index biopsy demonstrating ASAP/multifocal HGPIN but before the repeat biopsy.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how various histopathologic features, such as Gleason grade and maximum cancer core length (MCCL), affect the visibility of prostate cancer on MRI scans in men with elevated PSA levels and no prior biopsy.
  • It analyzes data from the Prostate MRI Imaging Study (PROMIS), focusing on MRI results correlated to specific areas of the prostate known as Barzell zones, using expert review of imaging and pathology findings.
  • Findings indicate that higher Gleason scores and longer cancer core lengths significantly increase the odds of MRI visibility, while factors like prostate volume and the presence of prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) also play important roles.

Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed clinicopathological characteristics of 42 cases of pancreatic lesions in children at Guangzhou Women's and Children's Medical Center from January 2000 to May 2021, examining factors such as age, gender, and clinical symptoms.
  • Clinical presentations in the pediatric patients, aged 1 day to 12 years (average 4.25), included abdominal masses, pain, vomiting, and hypoglycemia, with imaging revealing space-occupying lesions in most cases.
  • Histopathological findings indicated that 52.4% of cases were neoplastic, with various types including pancreatoblastoma, solid-pseudopapillary tumors, neuroendocrine tumors, and acinar cell carcinoma, alongside four mesenchymal

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to analyze the prevalence of atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP) and high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) in prostate biopsies in China, and the subsequent risk of prostate cancer (PCa) in follow-up biopsies.
  • Among 2,456 patients, initial biopsies showed a considerable rate of PCa (30%), with lower rates for ASAP (8.8%) and HGPIN (4%). Patients with ASAP were more likely to be diagnosed with PCa in subsequent biopsies as compared to those with HGPIN.
  • The results suggest that ASAP is a strong indicator for the need for

Background: In the era of active surveillance of low- and intermediate-risk prostatic cancer, a reconsideration of the implications of a biopsy report of ASAP and/or HGPIN may be timely.

Aims: We investigated the implications of a diagnosis of atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP) and high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) on prostate biopsy.

Methods: The rate of re-biopsy and the incidence of carcinoma on repeat biopsy for benign, HGPIN, and ASAP groups were compared.

Objective: To analyse the current predictive value of isolated high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) for clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) detection in repeat biopsies.

Patients And Methods: A cohort of 293 men with isolated HGPIN detected in previous biopsies performed without multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI), and who underwent repeat biopsy within 1 to 3 years, was analysed. Pre-repeat biopsy mpMRI and guided biopsies to suspicious lesions (Prostate Imaging - Reporting and Data System [PI-RADS] ≥3) and/or and systematic biopsies were performed.

Background: Repeat prostate biopsy (PBx) is recommended under persistent suspicion of prostate cancer (PCa) or in the face of the following findings: atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP); extense (≥3 biopsy sites) high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN); or HGPIN with atypical glands; suspicious for adenocarcinoma (PIN-ATYP). Nowadays; multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and mpMRI targeted PBx (MRI-TBx) are recommended in repeat PBx. Our objective was to analyze the current value of ASAP; mHGPIN; PIN-ATYP and other histological findings to predict clinically significant PCa (csPCa) risk.

Background: Atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP) occurs in approximately 5% of prostate biopsies. Approximately 30%-40% of these patients may develop prostate cancer (PCa) within a 5-year period, often not clinically significant. Current guidelines recommend a repeat biopsy within 3-6 months after the initial diagnosis, but it seem not to be the best strategy.

Objective: To evaluate the premalignant potential of high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) and atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP).

Methods: Patients diagnosed with monofocal HGPIN (mHGPIN), widespread HGPIN (≥4 cores, wHGPIN) and/or ASAP who underwent at least one rebiopsy during their follow-up, were enrolled. All enrollment biopsies underwent central pathologic revision.

Background: There is high demand to develop computer-assisted diagnostic tools to evaluate prostate core needle biopsies (CNBs), but little clinical validation and a lack of clinical deployment of such tools. We report here on a blinded clinical validation study and deployment of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based algorithm in a pathology laboratory for routine clinical use to aid prostate diagnosis.

Methods: An AI-based algorithm was developed using haematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained slides of prostate CNBs digitised with a Philips scanner, which were divided into training (1 357 480 image patches from 549 H&E-stained slides) and internal test (2501 H&E-stained slides) datasets.

Objective: To assess the current ability of atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP), multifocal high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (mHGPIN), HGPIN with atypia (PINATYP) and other non-malignant lesions to predict clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) in repeat prostate biopsies.

Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 377 repeat prostate biopsies, carried out between 2.014 and 2.

Atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP) and high grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) patterns identified at prostate biopsy yield an important clinical significance, their presence signaling an increased likelihood of future oncological development or underdiagnosed PCa. MRI and MRI-TRUS fusion prostate biopsy have recently become the standard for the diagnosis of prostate cancer. Thus, we aimed to assess the role of ASAP/HGPIN pattern in the context of these recent developments as compared with the standard systematic biopsy.

Purpose: A benign magnetic resonance imaging targeted prostate biopsy in the setting of a PI-RADS™ 4/5 abnormality presents a clinical dilemma for future management. We evaluated benign histological features on magnetic resonance imaging targeted prostate biopsy to determine if they predict the likelihood of missed cancer on subsequent biopsy.

Materials And Methods: Between June 2012 and September 2016, 1,595 men were enrolled in a prospective study of magnetic resonance imaging targeted and systematic biopsy outcomes.

Current guidelines recommend a repeat biopsy within 3-6 months after an initial diagnosis of atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP) due to the high incidence of cancer detection on repeat biopsy. The current study sought to investigate practice patterns after a diagnosis of ASAP in a real-world setting and examine the clinicopathological outcomes of repeat biopsy. The departmental database of the Hyogo Prefectural Nishinomiya Hospital identified 97 of 1,218 patients with a diagnosis of ASAP on initial biopsy from 2011 to 2016.
