Pathology of Prostate - Cancer
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men. While some prostate cancers are small and clinically insignificant, others can be rapidly fatal. The percentage of free PSA to total PSA is lower in men with prostate cancer. Microscopically, prostate cancer shows pleomorphic cells in single layer glands without secretions, unlike the normal double layer glands. Gleason scoring is used to grade prostate cancers from 1 to 10 based on their appearance under microscopy. Staging helps determine prognosis, with stage 1 having a 90% 5-year survival rate compared to 10% for stage 4 cancers.

Prostate Cancer Presentation v3
This document provides information about prostate cancer, including that it is the most common cancer in men in the UK with over 35,000 new cases diagnosed annually. Risk factors include age over 50, family history, and ethnicity. Symptoms include frequent urination and weak urine flow. Tests like PSA blood tests and digital rectal exams can help diagnose prostate problems. Treatment options and support groups are also discussed.
Why are some men at greater risk for prostate cancer?
Age is the most important risk factor for prostate cancer. Having relatives with prostate or breast cancer increases risk. Certain rare genes like BRCA2 can raise the risk of important prostate cancer by 7 times. Black men are more likely to get prostate cancer than Asian men. A healthy diet and exercise can help reduce the risk of prostate cancer.
Cancer types and properties
This document discusses cancer types, properties, symptoms, prevention, screening, and treatment. It defines cancer as abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade other parts of the body. The six hallmarks of cancer are described as uncontrolled cell growth, growth despite growth-inhibiting signals, evading cell death, unlimited cell division potential, inducing blood vessel growth, and spreading to other tissues. Common cancer symptoms depend on the location and can include lumps, bleeding, weight loss, and fever. Prevention methods include vaccines, medication like aspirin and tamoxifen, and diet low in processed meat. Screening considers test accuracy, potential harms, treatment options, and cost. Cancer treatment includes chemotherapy, radiation, palliative care

Cancer
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, responsible for about 25% of deaths. There are over 100 types of cancer that can affect people of all ages, with risk increasing with age. Approximately 90-95% of cancer cases are caused by environmental and lifestyle factors like smoking, poor diet, obesity, infections, radiation, and pollution rather than genetics. Cancer occurs when cells divide uncontrollably due to abnormalities in their genetic material. More than 30% of cancers are preventable by avoiding risk factors within one's control such as smoking, diet, exercise, alcohol, and infections.
Cancer introduction
This document provides an overview of oncological disorders including definitions, characteristics of benign and malignant tumors, and imaging tests used for early cancer detection. Cancer is defined as an abnormal growth of cells that proliferate uncontrollably and can metastasize. Benign tumors tend not to spread, grow slowly, and do not require aggressive treatment, while malignant tumors can spread rapidly and require surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy. The American Cancer Society recommends various screening tests including blood tests, MRI, CT scans, ultrasound, and PET scans to detect cancers early based on tissue type and organs.
Cancer causes & types
1) The document discusses cancer statistics in the United States, noting that over 500,000 Americans died of cancer in 2001, with 1.3 million new cases diagnosed.
2) It explores the causes of cancer including exposure to carcinogens, cellular mutations from environmental and lifestyle factors, genetics, and certain viruses.
3) The types and risks of several common cancers are examined, like lung cancer which is strongly linked to smoking, as well as breast, colon, prostate, and skin cancers. Detection methods and lifestyle prevention strategies are also reviewed.

Common symptoms include headaches, seizures, speech problems, imbalance or difficulty walking, and impaired or restricted vision. Breast cancer is caused by multiple factors including lifestyle and aging, and in some cases genetics, with common symptoms being lumps in the breast or armpit, changes in breast shape or size, and skin changes. Common gynecological cancers are cervical, ovarian, endometrial and fallopian tube, with symptoms including irregular periods, bleeding after sex or menopause, and abnormal discharge. Lung cancer risk is highest for smokers and increases with duration and amount smoked, with
Prostate Pathology
The document discusses various pathologies of the prostate, including:
- Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), which is a noncancerous enlargement of the prostate due to aging. Histologic features include glandular and stromal hyperplasia.
- Prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN), which is considered a precursor lesion to prostate cancer. It is graded as low or high grade.
- Prostate adenocarcinoma, which microscopically appears as small, simple glandular structures. The Gleason grading system is used to characterize prostate cancers.
- Other rare pathologies that can involve the prostate such as lymphoma, small cell carcinoma,
Cancer types
This document defines and describes several types of cancer. It identifies the main types as carcinoma, sarcoma, melanoma, leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma. Carcinoma arises from epithelial cells. Sarcoma arises from mesenchymal cells and can resemble different types of tissue. Melanoma originates from melanocytes and can occur anywhere melanocytes are found. Leukemia is a cancer of the blood or bone marrow caused by mutations disturbing cell regulation. Lymphoma develops in lymph nodes and organs from abnormal B or T cells. Myeloma results from abnormal plasma cells in the bone marrow interfering with normal cell production.
