To evaluate the premalignant potential of high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) and atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP).
Patients diagnosed with monofocal HGPIN (mHGPIN), widespread HGPIN (≥4 cores, wHGPIN) and/or ASAP who underwent at least one rebiopsy during their follow-up, were enrolled. All enrollment biopsies underwent central pathologic revision. Risks for PCa were estimated using Fine and Gray method for competing risk.
Pathologic revision changed the original diagnosis in 32.3% of cases. Among 336 cases enrolled, PCa was diagnosed in 164 (48.8%), and more specifically in 20 (30.3%) mHGPIN, 10 (34.5%) wHGPIN, 101 (54.0%) ASAP, and 33 (61.1%) HGPIN + ASAP (mean follow-up 124 months). Most PCa were Gleason score 6(3 + 3) (51.0%) and 7(3 + 4) (34.3%). On multivariate analysis, HGPIN + ASAP (HR 2.76, < 0.001) and ASAP alone (HR 2.41, < 0.001) were the only lesions significantly associated with PCa development. Of all cancers detected, 64.3% were at first rebiopsy. A rebiopsy performed within 3 months after ASAP diagnosis had a 45% chance of finding PCa. At Kaplan-Meier survival curves, median PCa-free survival was 48.1 months for HGPIN + ASAP and 64.9 months for ASAP ( 0.0005 at Log-rank test). At 1 year, 70% of HGPIN + ASAP, 73% of ASAP, 89% of wHGPIN, and 84% of mHGPIN were PCa-free.
The diagnosis of ASAP and HGPIN strongly relies on the expertise of dedicated uro-pathologists. Finding of ASAP is a strong risk factor for a subsequent PCa diagnosis, advising a rebiopsy, possibly within 3 months. m/wHGPIN should not be routinely rebiopsied.
评估高级别前列腺上皮内瘤变(HGPIN)和非典型小腺泡增生(ASAP)的癌前潜能。
本研究纳入了诊断为单灶 HGPIN(mHGPIN)、广泛 HGPIN(≥4 个核心,wHGPIN)和/或 ASAP 且在随访期间至少接受过一次再次活检的患者。所有入组活检均进行中心病理复查。使用 Fine 和 Gray 法对竞争风险进行估计,以评估前列腺癌的风险。
病理复查改变了 32.3%病例的原始诊断。在 336 例入组患者中,诊断为前列腺癌的有 164 例(48.8%),具体为 20 例 mHGPIN(30.3%)、10 例 wHGPIN(34.5%)、101 例 ASAP(54.0%)和 33 例 HGPIN+ASAP(平均随访 124 个月)。大多数前列腺癌为 Gleason 评分 6(3+3)(51.0%)和 7(3+4)(34.3%)。多变量分析显示,HGPIN+ASAP(HR 2.76,<0.001)和 ASAP 单独存在(HR 2.41,<0.001)是与前列腺癌发展唯一显著相关的病变。在所有检测到的癌症中,64.3%在第一次再次活检时发现。在 ASAP 诊断后 3 个月内进行再次活检,有 45%的机会发现前列腺癌。在 Kaplan-Meier 生存曲线中,HGPIN+ASAP 的中位无前列腺癌生存时间为 48.1 个月,ASAP 为 64.9 个月(Log-rank 检验 P=0.0005)。在 1 年时,HGPIN+ASAP 的无前列腺癌率为 70%,ASAP 为 73%,wHGPIN 为 89%,mHGPIN 为 84%。
ASAP 和 HGPIN 的诊断强烈依赖于专门的泌尿病理学家的专业知识。ASAP 的发现是后续前列腺癌诊断的一个强烈危险因素,建议进行再次活检,可能在 3 个月内进行。m/wHGPIN 不应常规进行再次活检。
