Interesting Cases in Prostate Pathology

 

While in most instances prostate pathology is fairly straightforward, there are several instances of challenging cases. The reporting practices of prostate carcinoma has also undergone several changes in the recent years with certain histopathological features being relevant from the clinical management of patients. In this presentation, some common, interesting, and rare cases encountered in prostate pathology will be discussed. The presentation will provide information on differential diagnosis, ancillary tests that are useful in making the diagnosis and the clinical relevance of the cases.

Originally presented on February 7, 2023, in Park City, Utah.
