Preoperative histological and cytological diagnosis and DNA ploidy assessment of localized prostatic cancer

Abstract: The preoperative biopsy specimens of 49 men who underwent radical prostatectomy were compared with serially step‐sectioned operative specimens, in order to evaluate diagnostic accuracy as regards the presence of cancer, its grade and its DNA ploidy. Both the FNAB and TRUS‐GCB undergraded the cancer by one WHO grade in about 35–40% of cases. In cases where both biopsy types were available, the degree of undergrading was the same. Determination of DNA ploidy by the single‐cell technique from FNAB had a sensitivi… Show more
