Basal cell hyperplasia of the prostate, also known as basal cell hyperplasia, is a benign change of the prostate gland that may be misdiagnosed as prostate carcinoma.

General

  • Benign lesion that can be misdiagnosed as cancer.[1]

Microscopic

Features:[2]

  • Low power gland architecture near normal.[3][4]
    • Glands not as small as cancer.
    • Folds in gland lumina.
  • No nuclear hyperchromasia.
  • Two cell populations (as in normal prostate glands).
  • Basal cells may have nucleoli.
