چکیده
Correspondence: Dr. Shovha Bastola, MD Department of Pathology, Grande International Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal E-mail:[email protected] Background: The major causes of prostatic enlargement are nodular hyperplasia, prostatitis and neoplasm including prostatic intraepithelial neoplasm. Acidic mucin is absent in benign prostatic glands and is present in some prostatic adenocarcinomas. Mucin stain may be an adjunctive aid in the diagnosis of prostatic adenocarcinoma. This study aims to find out role of acidic mucin in differentiating benign and malignant lesion together with the aid of PSA level.

Thirty cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia and 30 cases of prostatic adenocarcinoma were selected and stained by AgNOR (argyrophilic staining of the nucleolar organizer region) method. Specimens were obtained by either prostatectomy (open!TIJR) or needle biopsy of the prostate. In this study, the sections of prostatic adenocarcinoma were reviewed. 6 cases were diagnosed as well-differen...
