High-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia GudangMovies21 Rebahinxxi LK21
High-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) is an abnormality of prostatic glands and believed to precede the development of prostate adenocarcinoma (the most common form of prostate cancer).
It may be referred to simply as prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN). It is considered to be a pre-malignancy, or carcinoma in situ, of the prostatic glands.
Signs and symptoms
HGPIN in isolation is asymptomatic. It is typically discovered in prostate biopsies taken to rule-out prostate cancer and very frequently seen in prostates removed for prostate cancer.
= Relation to prostate cancer
=There are several reasons why PIN is the most likely prostate cancer precursor. PIN is more common in men with prostate cancer. High grade PIN can be found in 85 to 100% of radical prostatectomy specimens, nearby or even in connection with prostate cancer. It tends to occur in the peripheral zone of the prostate. With age, it becomes increasingly multifocal, like prostate cancer. Molecular analysis has shown that high grade PIN and prostate cancer share many genetic abnormalities.
The risk for men with high grade PIN of being diagnosed with prostate cancer after repeat biopsy has decreased since the introduction of biopsies at more than six locations (traditional sextant biopsies).
Histology
HGPIN typically has one of four different histologic patterns:
tufted (fascicular patterning)
micropapillary,
cribriform and,
flat.
Its cytologic features are that of prostatic adenocarcinoma:
presence of nucleoli,
increased nuclear-to-cytoplasmic ratio and,
increased nuclear size.
Microscopically, PIN is a collection of irregular, atypical epithelial cells. The architecture of the glands and ducts remains normal. The epithelial cells proliferate and crowding results in a pseudo-multilayer appearance. They remain fully contained within a prostate acinus (the berry-shaped termination of a gland, where the secretion is produced) or duct. The latter can be demonstrated with special staining techniques (immunohistochemistry for cytokeratins) to identify the basal cells forming the supporting layer of the acinus. In prostate cancer, the abnormal cells spread beyond the boundaries of the acinus and form clusters without basal cells. In HGPIN, the basal cell layer is disrupted but present. PIN is primarily found in the peripheral zone of the prostate (75-80%), rarely in the transition zone (10-15%) and very rarely in the central zone (5%), a distribution that parallels the zonal distribution for prostate carcinoma.
Because it is thought to be a premalignant state, PIN is often considered the prostate equivalent of what is called carcinoma in situ (localized cancer) in other organs. However, PIN differs from carcinoma in situ in that it may remain unchanged or even spontaneously regress.
Several architectural variants of PIN have been described, and many cases have multiple patterns. The main ones are tufting, micropapillary, cribriform, and flat. Although these different appearances may cause confusion with other conditions, they have not been found to be of clinical importance. Rarer types are signet-ring-cell, small-cell-neuroendocrine, mucinous, foamy, inverted, and with squamous differentiation.
Diagnosis
HGPIN is diagnosed from tissue by a pathologist, which may come from:
a needle biopsy taken via the rectum and,
surgical removal of prostate tissue:
transurethral resection of the prostate - removal of extra prostate tissue to improve urination (a treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia),
radical prostatectomy - complete removal of prostate and seminal vesicles (a treatment for prostate cancer).
Blood tests for prostate specific antigen (PSA), digital rectal examination, ultrasound scanning of the prostate via the rectum, fine needle aspiration or medical imaging studies (such as magnetic resonance imaging) are not useful for diagnosing HGPIN.
Treatment
HGPIN in isolation does not require treatment. In prostate biopsies it is not predictive of prostate cancer in one year if the prostate was well-sampled, i.e. if there were 8 or more cores.
The exact timing of repeat biopsies remains an area of controversy, as the time required for, and probability of HGPIN transformations to prostate cancer are not well understood.
Prognosis
On a subsequent biopsy, given a history of a HGPIN diagnosis, the chance of finding prostatic adenocarcinoma is approximately 30%.
History
PIN was historically subdivided into different stages, based on the level of cell atypia. PIN was formerly classified as PIN 1, 2 or 3, in order of increasing cell irregularities. Nowadays, PIN 1 is referred to as low grade PIN, and PIN 2 and PIN 3 are grouped together as high grade PIN. Only high grade PIN has been shown to be a risk factor for prostate cancer. Because low grade PIN has no significance and does not require repeat biopsies or treatment, it is not mentioned in pathology reports. As such, PIN has become synonymous with high grade PIN.

Understanding Your Pathology Report: Prostate Cancer
High-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (high-grade PIN) is a pre-cancer of the prostate. If prostate cancer is found on the biopsy and high-grade PIN is mentioned as well, it doesn’t affect a person’s outlook or their treatment options.
High grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia
Aug 20, 2024 · High grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) is a condition in which the cells that line the ducts and glands of the prostate gland show abnormal changes. These changes are not cancerous, but they are considered precancerous, meaning they may develop into prostate cancer over time.

Dec 1, 2016 · If you’ve ever had a prostate biopsy, you may have encountered the words, “isolated high-grade PIN.” PIN stands for “prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia,” and if you have it, you’re not alone: an estimated 50,000 to 70,000 men are told that their biopsy shows this finding.

High-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) is described histopathologically as an abnormal proliferation of precancerous foci of cellular dysplasia and of carcinoma in situ without stromal invasion.

Isolated high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) is detected in an average of 9% of prostate biopsies. The incidence, extent, and volume of HGPIN increase with patient age; its presence precedes the onset of prostatic carcinoma by 5 to 10 years or more.
