Pigment in Prostatic Epithelium

Topic: Normal Prostate and Seminal Vesicles

Category: Prostate

slide 23 of 24
 
Comments:
This image shows blue-purple granules of lipofuscin in secretory epithelial cells of prostate. Pigment may also be seen in high-grade PIN as well as prostatic adenocarcinoma. Prostatic epithelial cells with pigment should not be mistaken for seminal vesicle or ejaculatory duct epithelium. The finding of atypical bizarre hyperchromatic nuclei favors the latter.   return to Normal Prostate and Seminal Vesicles
