Qiao's Pathology: Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate with Perineural Invasion
Microscopic photo showing tumor glands growing along a nerve bundle (black arrow). The pathologic assessment of perineural invasion (PNI) of prostate needle biopsy specimens is relatively reproducible, requires no new technology or equipment, and is relatively inexpensive. The finding of PNI at biopsy has created excitement as a potential preoperative predictor of extraprostatic tumor extension. Jian-Hua Qiao, MD, FCAP, Los Angeles, CA, USA
