'''Ductal adenocarcinoma of the prostate gland''', also '''prostatic ductal adenocarcinoma''', is relatively common variant of [[prostate cancer]].
'''Ductal adenocarcinoma of the prostate gland''', also '''prostatic ductal adenocarcinoma''', is relatively common variant of [[prostate cancer]].


It is also known as '''prostatic adenocarcinoma, large duct type'''.
It is also known as '''prostatic adenocarcinoma, large duct type'''.
It should '''not''' be confused with ''[[intraductal carcinoma of the prostate gland]]''.

===Comment about small amount of ductal adenocarcinoma===
<pre>
A small amount of ductal-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate is seen; it represents approximately 5% of the tumour by volume and is of no particular prognostic significance. As the volume of the ductal-type adenocarcinoma is small, the case is classified as acinar adenocarcinoma.
