Key reasons for false negative prostate samples<ref>{{cite journal |authors=Yang C, Humphrey PA |title=False-Negative Histopathologic Diagnosis of Prostatic Adenocarcinoma |journal=Arch. Pathol. Lab.

*[[Pseudohyperplastic adenocarcinoma]].
*Tissue artefacts (try levels and/or IHC):
*[[Foamy gland adenocarcinoma]].
**Crush artefact
*[[PIN-like adenocarcinoma]].
**Thick sections
**Aberrant H&E staining
**Freezing artefact
**Cautery
*Minimal adenocarcinoma (less than 1mm long or involving less than 5% of a core biopsy):
*Prostatic adenocarcinoma variants that mimic benign:
**[[Atrophic prostate carcinoma]]
**[[Pseudohyperplastic adenocarcinoma]]
**[[Foamy gland adenocarcinoma]]
**[[PIN-like adenocarcinoma]]
**Microcystic adenocarcinoma
*Single cells of Gleason 5 adenocarcinoma (missed or mistaken for lymphocytes; try IHC for cytokeratins, prostatic and/or hematologic markers)
*Treatment effect (check clinical information and look for treatment effect in benign glands)
