If seen on a prostate core biopsy this prostatic adenocarcinoma would be best graded as Gleason score =3 for 60%, Gleason score = 4 for 25%, and Gleason score = 5 for 15%. How would the case be scored overall?Gleason score 4 + 5 = 9/10 Gleason score 3 + 4 = 7/10 Gleason score 3 + 5 = 8/10 Gleason score 5 + 3 = 8/10 Gleason score 3 + 3 = 6/10 2. The following statements regarding normal prostate are true, EXCEPT:Lipofuscin pigment helps differentiate seminal vesicle tissue from prostatic glands Denonvillier's fascia separates the prostate and seminal vesicles from the rectum Large number of neuroendocrine cells are present in prostatic epitheliumSkeletal muscle of the urogenital diaphragm extends into the prostate in its most apical aspectAnterior fibromuscular stroma occupies approximately 1/3 of the prostate, contains very few glands and consists of smooth muscle and dense fibrous tissue 3. A 3 year old boy presents with a large abdominal mass consistent with neuroblastoma. All of the following statements regarding this condition are correct, EXCEPT:Two characteristic genetic events are loss of a distal region of chromosome 1p and amplification of N-myc oncogene Histologically, the most prominent feature is presence of Homer Wright rosettesHemorrhage, calcification and necrosis are common macroscopic features Over 80% are detected in children under the age of 4 It is associated with the Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, Hirschsprung's disease and neurofibromatosis 4. All of the following parameters are associated with adverse outcome in prostatic carcinoma, EXCEPT:Positive surgical marginsInvolvement of seminal vesicle Nodal metastases Extraprostatic extensionPerineural invasion 5. All of the statements concerning a fibroepithelial polyp of the bladder are true, EXCEPT:This lesion has no malignant potential There is a female predominanceIt is mostly found in children and young adults It represents a mesenchymal tumor It occurs most commonly at the ureteropelvic junction and upper ureter 6. A 42 yo female presented with hypertension, Cushing's syndrome and virilization. A representative section from her resection specimen is consistent with an adrenal cortical carcinoma. All of the following features are part of diagnostic criteria for this tumor EXCEPT:Tumor necrosis Diffuse growth patternCellular pleomorphismVascular invasionTumor weight 7. This subtype of prostatic carcinoma overall has a better prognosis than the usual acinar type:Signet ring carcinoma Mucinous adenocarcinoma Ductal carcinomaSmall cell carcinomaAdenoid basal cell tumor (adenoid cystic tumor) 8. 63 year old male with a history of bilateral ocular MALT lymphoma treated with radiation therapy. He now presents with diffuse pelvic infiltrative process involving the bladder, prostate, seminal vesicles, rectosigmoid, distal ureters, and adjacent muscles. Bladder and prostate biopsies were performed. Based on histology, the process is most consistent with:High grade prostatic adenocarcinoma Recurrent MALT lymphoma Invasive transitional cell carcinoma (urothelial neoplasm) High-grade lymphoma Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis 9. All of the following statements are correct regarding this kidney neoplasm, EXCEPT: GU Pathology - Part 1, Case #5 GU Pathology - Part 1, Case #5 GU Pathology - Part 1, Case #5It always has three components: undifferentiated blastema, mesenchymal tissue and epithelial tissueLesions are divided into favorable and unfavorable histology groups based on the degree of anaplasia Staging is the most important prognostic determinator 90% of the cases occur before the age of 6 It is associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann and Denys-Drash syndromes Loading...
