**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.
 
DDx:
*[[High-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia]] - has nuclear hyperchromasia, architecture usually different (micropapillary, tufted, cribriform or flat).
*[[Prostatic adenocarcinoma]].
