Intraductal carcinoma of the prostate, abbreviated IDC-P, is a proliferation of malignant prostate cells within glands that have an intact basal cell layer.
General
- May represent a precursor to invasive prostate carcinoma.[1]
- Associated with a poor prognosis.[2]
- Strong association with aggressive invasive carcinomas on prostatectomy when identified in isolation on biopsy.[3]
- High interobserver variability among experts ~43% agreement.[4]
- For comparison: HGPIN ~70% agreement, invasive carcinoma ~73% agreement.
- Uncommon finding ~ 3% of cases in a series of 1176 prostate biopsies.[5]
Microscopic
Major criteria
Required major criteria:[6][7]
- Glands 2x normal (peripheral zone) glands.
- Basal cells present (proven by IHC).
- "Cytologically malignant cells" = nuclear hyperchromasia, nuclear enlargement, nucleoli.
- Fills the lumen ("expansile") but does not have to be "solid".
- Solid = no spaces between the cells.
Additional (major) criterion:[6]
- Comedonecrosis.
Minor criteria
Minor criteria:[6]
- Branching of ducts at right angles.
- Rounded/smooth gland outlines.
- Two cell populations:
- Malignant population (enlarged nuclei with hyperchromasia and nucleoli) = peripheral location in gland.
- Benign population (smaller nuclei, no nucleoli) = central location in gland.
DDx:
- High-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN).
- Invasive prostate adenocarcinoma.
IHC
Features - basal cells present:
- CK34betaE12 +ve.
- p63 +ve.
