Crystalloids in prostatic hyperplasia.

B Bennett, W A Gardner

    The Prostate
    |January 1, 1980

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Prostatic crystalloids, once linked only to cancer, were found in 3.6% of benign prostatic hyperplasia cases. Further study is needed to determine if these crystalloids predict prostate cancer development.

    Area of Science:

    • Uropathology
    • Oncology
    • Prostate Health

    Background:

    • Prostatic crystalloids were historically associated exclusively with prostate carcinoma.
    • Their presence in benign prostatic conditions was not well-documented.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the occurrence of prostatic crystalloids in cases of prostatic hyperplasia.
    • To explore the potential association between prostatic crystalloids and different types of hyperplasia.

    Main Methods:

    • Histopathological examination of 456 cases of prostatic hyperplasia.
    • Identification and quantification of prostatic crystalloids.

    Main Results:

    • Prostatic crystalloids were identified in 3.6% of all prostatic hyperplasia cases.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Crystalloids were present in 9.6% of atypical hyperplasia cases.
  • Seventy percent of cases with crystalloids also showed typical hyperplasia.

    • Conclusions:

    • Prostatic crystalloids can be found in benign prostatic hyperplasia, not just carcinoma.
    • The incidence is higher in atypical hyperplasia.
    • Long-term follow-up is required to assess the prognostic value of crystalloids for prostate cancer.
