Prostatic Intraepithelial Neoplasia
A premalignant change arising in the prostatic epithelium, regarded as the most important and most likely precursor of prostatic adenocarcinoma. The neoplasia takes the form of an intra-acinar or ductal proliferation of secretory cells with unequivocal nuclear anaplasia, which corresponds to nuclear grade 2 and 3 invasive prostate cancer.
Ultrasonography as an aid in the diagnosis and management of surgical diseases of the pelvis: special emphasis on the genitourinary system. (1/148)
Technological advances, particularly the advent of the gray scale technique, has greatly extended the application and usefulness of this modality to clinical diagnoses and surgery. The ultrasonic beam uniquely provides anatomical profiles in the transverse (cross-sectional) and sagittal (longitudinal) planes of the body. Intra-rectal and intra-vaginal ultrasonic probes have provided unique definition of both the normal and pathologic anatomy of the pelvic organs. The present report is drawn from a continuing experience with ultrasonography of the genitourinary system with an update of current technological advances. Ultrasonography has proven especially valuable in the following clinical applications: 1) Early diagnosis of cancer (especially of the prostate); 2) Accurate staging of cancer of the bladder and prostate; 3) Monitoring of the response of the pathologic process to therapy.

Estrogens have been implicated in prostatic cancerogenesis and tumor progression. The mechanisms underlying estrogen signaling in human prostate tissue, however, remain poorly understood. Using immunohistochemical and in situ hybridization (ISH) techniques, the present study demonstrates the classical estrogen receptor (ERalpha) in premalignant lesions and prostatic adenocarcinoma through the various stages of the disease. Conversely, the novel characterized ERbeta subtype was undetectable in human prostate tissue. High-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia revealed ERalpha mRNA and protein expression in 28% and 11% of cases evaluated. Focal ER immunoreactivity was detected in a minority of low- to intermediate-grade adenocarcinoma. High-grade (primary Gleason grade 4 and 5) tumors revealed ER protein expression in 43% (62% respectively) of cases. The most significant ERalpha gene expression on mRNA and protein levels was observed in hormone refractory tumors and metastatic lesions, including lymph node and bone metastases. Results of the current study suggest that estrogens can affect prostatic cancerogenesis and neoplastic progression through an ER-mediated process in human prostate tissue. (+info)Transurethral deroofing of midline prostatic cyst for subfertile men. (3/148)
We evaluated the efficacy of transurethral deroofing of a midline prostatic cyst in subfertile men with one or more of the following semen abnormalities: decreased ejaculatory volume, decreased sperm motility and oligo- or azoospermia. Results from treatment of a series of 11 subfertile men with a midline prostatic cyst by transurethral deroofing of the cyst are presented. Five patients showed an improvement of seminal volume. Only one patient demonstrated an improvement of sperm count. Sperm motility was not influenced. No relationship was found between positive outcome following operation and either size of the cyst or dilatation of the seminal vesicles. Spontaneous pregnancies did not occur after transurethral deroofing of the midline prostatic cyst. In conclusion, our study suggests a poor efficacy of transurethral deroofing of a midline prostatic cyst in subfertile men with the above mentioned semen abnormalities. (+info)Prostatic and central nervous system histoplasmosis in an immunocompetent host: case report and review of the prostatic histoplasmosis literature. (4/148)
Histoplasmosis is a common cause of systemic mycosis in areas of the United States where it is endemic. Central nervous system and genitourinary histoplasmosis is rare, especially in immunocompetent hosts. We describe a case of disseminated histoplasmosis in a normal host that was associated with cerebral and prostatic histoplasmosis presenting as fever of undetermined origin, weight loss, and severe debilitating altered mental status. The patient subsequently developed acute renal failure that manifested as obstructive uropathy during antifungal therapy with amphotericin B. Transurethral resection of the prostate resulted in improved renal function during continuation of amphotericin B therapy. Pathological analysis of the prostate revealed necrotizing granulomas with intralesional fungal organisms. Blood and urine cultures were positive for Histoplasma capsulatum. Diagnostic issues and management are discussed. Treatment resulted in return of normal cognitive and motor function. This case is compared with the 8 previously reported cases of H. capsulatum prostatitis. (+info)Can percent free prostate-specific antigen reduce the need for prostate biopsy? (5/148)
BACKGROUND: In a recent multicenter study, percent free prostate-specific antigen (PSA) enhanced the specificity of PSA testing in prostate cancer screening. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the percent free PSA could be as effective in reducing the need for biopsy in a managed care setting as in an academic setting. SETTING: Kaiser Permanente Northwest Region (Portland, Oregon) and Kaiser Permanente Oakland/Berkeley (California). DESIGN: Prospective blinded study conducted by using Hybritech Tandem PSA and Hybritech Tandem free PSA assays (Beckman Coulter, Inc., Fullerton, California). PARTICIPANTS: 250 men (63 with prostate cancer and 187 with benign prostate conditions) who were older than 40 years of age, had a PSA level of 4.0 to 10.0 ng/mL, and had a histologically confirmed diagnosis. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Sensitivity and specificity of percent free PSA. RESULTS: The median percent free PSA values for patients with cancer (free PSA, 13%) significantly differed from that for patients without cancer (free PSA, 17%) (P = 0.001). When a free PSA cutoff of 25% was used, the sensitivity was 97% (95% CI, 92% to 100%) and the specificity was 13% (CI, 8% to 18%). These results were not significantly different from those obtained in the multicenter study (95% sensitivity, 20% specificity for a free PSA cutoff of 25%). CONCLUSION: The results obtained in a managed care organization were similar to those obtained at large university medical centers and show that the percent free PSA can be used to enhance the specificity of PSA testing for prostate cancer. (+info)Treatment of prostatitis. (6/148)
The term prostatitis is applied to a series of disorders, ranging from acute bacterial infection to chronic pain syndromes, in which the prostate gland is inflamed. Patients present with a variety of symptoms, including urinary obstruction, fever, myalgias, decreased libido or impotence, painful ejaculation and low-back and perineal pain. Physical examination often fails to clarify the cause of the pain. Cultures and microscopic examination of urine and prostatic secretions before and after prostatic massage may help differentiate prostatitis caused by infection from prostatitis with other causes. Because the rate of occult infection is high, a therapeutic trial of antibiotics is often in order even when patients do not appear to have bacterial prostatitis. If the patient responds to therapy, antibiotics are continued for at least three to four weeks, although some men require treatment for several months. A patient who does not respond might be evaluated for chronic nonbacterial prostatitis, in which nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, alpha-blocking agents, anticholinergic agents or other therapies may provide symptomatic relief. (+info)Health issues in men: part I: Common genitourinary disorders. (7/148)
Common genitourinary health issues that arise in the care of male patients include prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, urogenital cancers, premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction. Bacterial infections are responsible for only 5 to 10 percent of prostatitis cases. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is present in 90 percent of men by the age of 85. Common urogenital cancers include prostate cancer, transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder and testicular cancer. Although an estimated 10 percent of men eventually develop prostate cancer, screening for this malignancy is one of the most controversial areas of health prevention. Premature ejaculation occurs in as many as 40 percent of men. Treatment with tricyclic antidepressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, counseling or behavioral therapy may be helpful. Erectile dysfunction affects up to 30 percent of men between 40 and 70 years of age. Stepped therapy is a useful approach to this common malady. Good treatment results have been obtained with orally administered sildenafil and intraurethrally administered alprostadil. (+info)Successful closure of a recto-prostatic fistula. (8/148)
Recto-prostatic fistula is a rare complication of prostatic surgery, occurring usually because surgical planes are not appreciated. We describe a combined abdomino-perineal approach for the repair of a large recto-prostatic fistula with the interposition of omentum and gracilis without formally closing the fistula in layers. (+info)Prostatic diseases refer to a range of medical conditions affecting the prostate gland, including benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostatitis, and prostate cancer, each with distinct symptoms, causes, and treatment approaches.
Prostatic diseases refer to a range of medical conditions that affect the prostate gland, a small gland that is part of the male reproductive system. The prostate is located below the bladder and surrounds the urethra, the tube that carries urine and semen out of the body. Some common prostatic diseases include:
1. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): This is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that can cause difficulties with urination, such as a weak stream, frequent urination, and a feeling of incomplete bladder emptying.
2. Prostatitis: This is an inflammation or infection of the prostate gland that can cause pain, fever, difficulty urinating, and sexual dysfunction.
3. Prostate Cancer: This is a malignant tumor that develops in the prostate gland and can spread to other parts of the body. It is one of the most common types of cancer in men and can often be treated successfully if detected early.
4. Acute Bacterial Prostatitis: This is a sudden and severe infection of the prostate gland that can cause fever, chills, pain in the lower back and genital area, and difficulty urinating.
5. Chronic Bacterial Prostatitis: This is a recurring or persistent bacterial infection of the prostate gland that can cause symptoms similar to chronic pelvic pain syndrome.
6. Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS): Also known as chronic nonbacterial prostatitis, this condition is characterized by ongoing pain in the pelvic area, often accompanied by urinary and sexual dysfunction. The exact cause of CPPS is not well understood, but it is thought to be related to inflammation or nerve damage in the prostate gland.
Prostatic hyperplasia, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that commonly occurs in older men, potentially leading to urinary symptoms due to compression of the urethra.
Prostatic hyperplasia, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), is a noncancerous enlargement of the prostate gland. The prostate gland surrounds the urethra, the tube that carries urine and semen out of the body. When the prostate gland enlarges, it can squeeze or partially block the urethra, causing problems with urination, such as a weak stream, difficulty starting or stopping the flow, and more frequent urination, especially at night. Prostatic hyperplasia is a common condition as men age and does not necessarily lead to cancer. However, it can cause significant discomfort and decreased quality of life if left untreated. Treatment options include medications, minimally invasive procedures, and surgery.
The prostate is a small gland that surrounds the urethra in males, located below the bladder and in front of the rectum, responsible for producing some components of semen during ejaculation.
The prostate is a small gland that is part of the male reproductive system. Its main function is to produce a fluid that, together with sperm cells from the testicles and fluids from other glands, makes up semen. This fluid nourishes and protects the sperm, helping it to survive and facilitating its movement.
The prostate is located below the bladder and in front of the rectum. It surrounds part of the urethra, the tube that carries urine and semen out of the body. This means that prostate problems can affect urination and sexual function. The prostate gland is about the size of a walnut in adult men.
Prostate health is an important aspect of male health, particularly as men age. Common prostate issues include benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), which is an enlarged prostate not caused by cancer, and prostate cancer, which is one of the most common types of cancer in men. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider can help to detect any potential problems early and improve outcomes.
Prostatic neoplasms are abnormal and uncontrolled growths of cells within the prostate gland, which can be benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous), with the potential to invade local tissues and spread to distant organs.
Prostatic neoplasms refer to abnormal growths in the prostate gland, which can be benign or malignant. The term "neoplasm" simply means new or abnormal tissue growth. When it comes to the prostate, neoplasms are often referred to as tumors.
Benign prostatic neoplasms, such as prostate adenomas, are non-cancerous overgrowths of prostate tissue. They usually grow slowly and do not spread to other parts of the body. While they can cause uncomfortable symptoms like difficulty urinating, they are generally not life-threatening.
Malignant prostatic neoplasms, on the other hand, are cancerous growths. The most common type of prostate cancer is adenocarcinoma, which arises from the glandular cells in the prostate. Prostate cancer often grows slowly and may not cause any symptoms for many years. However, some types of prostate cancer can be aggressive and spread quickly to other parts of the body, such as the bones or lymph nodes.
It's important to note that while prostate neoplasms can be concerning, early detection and treatment can significantly improve outcomes for many men. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider are key to monitoring prostate health and catching any potential issues early on.
Prostatitis is a term used to describe inflammation of the prostate gland, which can be caused by bacterial or non-bacterial factors and may present with varying symptoms such as pain, urinary frequency, difficulty in urination, and sexual dysfunction.
Prostatitis is a medical condition that refers to inflammation of the prostate gland, which can be caused by bacterial or non-bacterial factors. It can present with various symptoms such as pain in the lower abdomen, pelvis, or genital area, difficulty and/or painful urination, ejaculation pain, and flu-like symptoms. Prostatitis can be acute or chronic, and it is important to seek medical attention for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) is a glycoprotein produced by the epithelial cells of the prostate gland, commonly used as a tumor marker to detect and monitor prostate cancer, with increased levels indicating possible malignancy or other conditions such as inflammation, benign prostatic hyperplasia, or recent surgical procedures.
Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) is a glycoprotein enzyme produced by the epithelial cells of the prostate gland. It is primarily involved in liquefying semen after ejaculation, allowing sperm mobility.
In clinical medicine, PSA is used as a tumor marker, mainly for monitoring the treatment and recurrence of prostate cancer. Elevated levels of PSA can indicate inflammation, infection, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or prostate cancer. However, it's important to note that an elevated PSA level does not necessarily confirm cancer; further diagnostic tests like digital rectal examination, transrectal ultrasound, and prostate biopsy are often required for definitive diagnosis.
Doctors may also use PSA isoforms or derivatives, such as free PSA, total PSA, and PSA density, to help improve the specificity of cancer detection and differentiate between malignant and benign conditions.
Prostatic Intraepithelial Neoplasia (PIN) is a premalignant condition characterized by the presence of histological changes in the glandular epithelium of the prostate, with architectural and cytological atypia, which can be low-grade or high-grade, but lack invasion into the surrounding stroma.
Prostatic Intraepithelial Neoplasia (PIN) is a term used in pathology to describe the abnormal growth of cells within the lining of the prostate gland's ducts and acini (small sacs that produce and store fluids). PIN is not considered a cancer, but it can be a precursor to prostate cancer.
There are two types of PIN: low-grade and high-grade. Low-grade PIN shows mild to moderate atypia (abnormalities in the cells), while high-grade PIN displays more significant atypia, which resembles prostate cancer. High-grade PIN is often found close to or within areas of prostate cancer, making it a potential indicator of malignancy.
However, not all cases of high-grade PIN progress to cancer, and some men with high-grade PIN may never develop prostate cancer. Nonetheless, the presence of high-grade PIN might prompt further investigation or monitoring to ensure early detection and treatment of any potential cancer development.
