MeSH Heading: Prostatic Intraepithelial Neoplasia
Tree Number(s): C04.557.470.200.240.500
Unique ID: D019048
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D019048
Annotation: coordinate with PROSTATIC NEOPLASMS
Scope Note: A premalignant change arising in the prostatic epithelium, regarded as the most important and most likely precursor of prostatic adenocarcinoma. The neoplasia takes the form of an intra-acinar or ductal proliferation of secretory cells with unequivocal nuclear anaplasia, which corresponds to nuclear grade 2 and 3 invasive prostate cancer.
