COMMENT: | |||
The granulomas appear to be within the periprostatic soft tissue. They consist of | |||
multinucleated (foreign body-type) giant cells, hyaline material and rare interspersed | |||
neutrophils. No necrosis is identified. This finding may represent a reaction to displaced | |||
epithelium from a previous procedure. | |||

==Inflammation== | |||
===Micro=== | |||
The sections show prostate cores with marked inflammation, that partially obscures the gland | |||
outlines. The inflammation is predominantly lymphocytic with a lesser amount of | |||
neutrophils and plasma cells. Eosinophils are not readily apparent. An isolated granuloma | |||
without necrosis is seen in one core. | |||
The gland-to-stroma ratio is within normal limits. Basal cells are identified in | |||
the glands. Reactive nuclear changes are present. The gland architecture does not show | |||
changes characteristic of neoplasia. |
