IDC Prostate cancer

UNLABELLED: Intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P) is a lethal prostate cancer subtype that generally coexists with invasive high-grade prostate acinar adenocarcinoma (PAC) but exhibits distinct biological features compared with concomitant adenocarcinoma. In this study, we performed whole-exome, RNA, and DNA-methylation sequencing of IDC-P, concurrent invasive high-grade PAC lesions, and adjacent normal prostate tissues isolated from 22 radical prostatectomy specimens. Three evolutionary patterns of concurrent IDC-P and PAC were identified: early divergent, late divergent, and clonally distant...

BACKGROUND: The presence of cribriform morphology and intraductal carcinoma (IDC) in prostate biopsies and radical prostatectomy specimens is an adverse prognostic feature that can be used to guide treatment decisions. OBJECTIVE: To assess how accurately biopsies can detect cribriform morphology and IDC cancer by examining matched biopsy and prostatectomy samples. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Patients who underwent radical prostatectomy at The Princess Margaret Cancer Centre between January 2015 and December 2022 and had cribriform morphology and/or IDC in the surgical specimen were included in the study...

Clinical and genomic features of prostate cancer (PCa) vary considerably between Asian and Western populations. PTEN loss is the most frequent abnormality in intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P) in Western populations. However, its prevalence and significance in Asian populations have not yet been well studied. In the present study, we evaluated PTEN expression in IDC-P in a Japanese population and its association with ERG expression. This study included 45 and 59 patients with PCa with and without IDC-P, respectively, who underwent radical prostatectomy...

Ras homolog gene family member V (RHOV) is an atypical Rho GTPase that participates in various important cellular processes. Although RHOV has been identified to play an oncogenic role in lung cancer and triple-negative breast cancer, its role in other types of tumors remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the expression of RHOV in pan-cancer analysis using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene-Tissue Expression datasets. RHOV mRNA levels were dysregulated in several types of tumors. RHOV expression was identified as an independent prognostic factor in 7 of 33 types of tumors; however, the relationship varied according to tumor type...

Metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) patients complicated with bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) are often referred to a urologist. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) combined with indwelling catheter usually be the initial management. To retrospectively analysis the safety and efficacy of simultaneous thulium laser resection of the prostate (TmLRP) and transperineal prostate biopsy in metastatic prostate cancer with bladder outlet obstruction. From January 2016 to December 2021, 67 clinically diagnosed mPCa with BOO patients were included in this study...

A 75-year-old man presented with macroscopic hematuria and a high serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level. Macroscopic hematuria had subsided by the time of consultation. The PSA level was 38.590 ng/ml, which, along with rectal examination and magnetic resonance imaging findings, led to the suspicion of prostate cancer. Transrectal needle biopsy of the prostate revealed intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P). Computed tomography and bone scintigraphy were performed, and the prostate cancer was classified as cT2cN0M0...

BACKGROUND: Pretreatment stratification tools can help in clinical decision making in prostate cancer. To date, none incorporates well-established routinely reported adverse prognostic pathologic features such as intraductal carcinoma of prostate (IDC) or cribriform pattern 4 (CC). OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of addition of CC and/or IDC on the Cancer of Prostate Risk Assessment (CAPRA) and National Cancer Comprehensive Network (NCCN) tools for predicting biochemical recurrence free survival (BCR-FS) and event-free survival (EFS) across multiple patient cohorts...

INTRODUCTION: Acute urinary retention (AUR) is one of the most severe symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). There are some studies in the literature describing the risk factors for the development of AUR in BPH patients. However, the studies that summarize the effect of AUR on Transurethral resection of Prostate (TUR-P) surgery results are limited. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of AUR on TUR-P results. METHODS: Between 2018 and 2020, patients who underwent TUR-P for AUR or lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) were included in the study...

BACKGROUND: Prostate cancers featuring an expansile cribriform (EC) pattern are associated with worse clinical outcomes following radical prostatectomy (RP). However, studies of the genomic characteristics of Gleason pattern 4 subtypes are limited. OBJECTIVE: To explore transcriptomic characteristics and heterogeneity within Gleason pattern 4 subtypes (fused/poorly formed, glomeruloid, small cribriform, EC/intraductal carcinoma [IDC]) and the association with biochemical recurrence (BCR)-free survival...

BACKGROUND: Male breast cancer (MBC) is one of the rare malignancies that account for less than 1% of all malignancies in males. However, the clinicopathological characteristics of MBC are not entirely similar to female breast cancer; but still, it is treated in line with the female breast cancer protocols. AIMS: To retrospectively analyse trends in MBC as to its distribution, presentation, treatment, and outcome. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A total of 106 patients with MBC from 1991 to 2020 were analysed retrospectively...

It remains controversial if Gleason grade should be assigned to intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P) and if the prognostic value of comedonecrosis associated with IDC-P is equivalent to that in conventional/invasive prostatic adenocarcinoma (CPA) as a Gleason grade 5 pattern. We herein assessed radical prostatectomy findings and postoperative outcomes in 287 patients with CPA exhibiting any Gleason pattern 5. Our cases were divided into 4 cohorts according to the absence or presence of necrosis within CPA and/or IDC-P: Cohort-1) no necrosis in CPA/IDC-P (n = 179; 62...

BACKGROUND: Cribriform morphology portends worse oncologic outcomes, and has unique cellular intrinsic pathway alterations and tumor microenvironments that may impact metastatic spread patterns. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the presence of cribriform morphology in prostatectomy specimens of patients with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy (RP) is associated with the presence of metastasis on prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and a distinct pattern of spread...

BACKGROUND: Bone metastatic involvement represents a leading cause of death in patients with advanced breast cancer (BC). At present, it is not clear whether the bone metastatic load might impact Overall Survival (OS) in patients with bone metastatic BC at diagnosis. For this purpose, we used the Bone Scan Index (BSI), which is a reproducible and quantitative expression of tumor load observed at bone scintigraphy. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to associate BSI with OS in bone metastatic BC patients...

OBJECTIVE:  To evaluate the frequency of intraductal component (IDC-P) in prostatic adenocarcinoma and its effect on the final grade using the ISUP and GUPS grading system. STUDY DESIGN:  Descriptive study. Place and Duration of the Study: Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre, Lahore, between June 2021 and June 2022. METHODOLOGY: The study included 250 cases of prostatic adenocarcinoma. The presence of the intraductal carcinoma prostate (IDC-P) was confirmed by patchy or complete staining of the basal cell layer by p63 immunohistochemical stain...

Intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P) is an aggressive histological subtype of prostate cancer (PCa) detected in approximately 20% of radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens. As IDC-P has been associated with PCa-related death and poor responses to standard treatment, the purpose of this study was to explore the immune infiltrate of IDC-P. Hematoxylin- and eosin-stained slides from 96 patients with locally advanced PCa who underwent RP were reviewed to identify IDC-P. Immunohistochemical staining of CD3, CD8, CD45RO, FoxP3, CD68, CD163, CD209 and CD83 was performed...

AIMS: Radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer is frequently complicated by erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence. However, sparing of the nerve bundles adjacent to the posterolateral sides of the prostate reduces the number of complications at the risk of positive surgical margins. Preoperative selection of men eligible for safe, nerve-sparing surgery is therefore needed. Our aim was to identify pathological factors associated with positive posterolateral surgical margins in men undergoing bilateral nerve-sparing RP...

PURPOSE: Intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P) is a relatively unstudied feature present in some prostate cancer (PC) diagnoses with several studies suggesting associations with higher Gleason scores (GS) and earlier time to biochemical recurrence (BCR) after definitive treatment. We looked to identify cases of IDC-P in the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) database and measure associations between IDC-P and pathological stage, BCR, and metastases. METHODS: Patients in the VHA database diagnosed with PC from 2000 to 2017, treated with radical prostatectomy (RP) at the VHA were included in the cohort...

BACKGROUND: Due to the lack of sufficient evidence, it is not clear whether robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) or laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) is better for prostate cancer. The authors conducted this study by separately pooling and analysing randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and non-randomised studies to compare the perioperative, functional, and oncologic outcomes between RARP and LRP. METHODS: A systematic literature search was performed in March 2022 using Cochrane Library, Pubmed, Embase, Medline, Web of Science, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure...

Intraductal carcinoma (IDC) of the prostate is often associated with concurrent high-grade invasive prostate cancer (PCa) and poor clinical outcomes. In this context, IDC is thought to represent the retrograde spread of invasive prostatic adenocarcinoma into the acini and ducts. Prior studies have demonstrated a concordance of PTEN loss and genomic instability between the IDC and high-grade invasive components of PCa, but larger genomic association studies to solidify our understanding of the relationship between these 2 lesions are lacking...

The present study aimed to assess the association between the cribriform pattern (CP)/intraductal carcinoma (IDC) and the adverse pathological and clinical outcomes in the radical prostatectomy (RP) cohort. A systematic search was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis statement (PRISMA). The protocol from this review was registered on the PROSPERO platform. We searched PubMed® , the Cochrane Library and EM-BASE® up to the 30th of April 2022. The outcomes of interest were the extraprostatic extension (EPE), seminal vesicle invasion (SVI), lymph node metastasis (LNS met), risk of biochemical recurrence (BCR), distant metastasis (MET) and disease-specific death (DSD)...
