Abstract

Background: Prostatic disease is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality in men throughout the world. The current study is undertaken to assess the spectrum of tumors affecting the prostate and the utility of clinical and pathological correlation in the diagnosis of the same.

Material and Methods: The present study was done on 174 cases of various lesions of the prostate over a period of 5 years in the Department of Pathology. All the prostatic specimens were subjected to a careful and detailed gross examination. 10% formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tissue sections from these specimens were used for microscopic study

Result: Out of the 174 cases of the various lesions of the prostate, 164[94.26%] cases were benign and 7 [4.02%] cases were malignant.

Conclusions: Histopathology plays a pivitol role in diagnosing prostatic lesions, classifying them in to benign, and malignant and to study the salient features of each lesions.

Keywords:  neoplasm, prostrate, hyperplasia, malignancy, biopsy.
