Xanthogranulomatous prostatitis as mimicker of prostate adenocarcinoma can cause a diagnostic dilemma, as presented in this case. Therefore, alongside histopathology analysis, multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) would be useful in this situation by identifying and characterizing suspicious prostatic lesions before biopsy thereby supporting current recommendations on the use of mpMRI.
如本病例所示，黄色肉芽肿性前列腺炎作为前列腺腺癌的模仿者可导致诊断困境。因此，除了组织病理学分析外，多参数磁共振成像（mpMRI）在这种情况下将很有用，它可以在活检前识别和表征可疑的前列腺病变，从而支持目前关于使用mpMRI的建议。
