Spermatozoa have not previously been described within the prostate gland. Nine of one hundred prostates of nonhospitalized males obtained from autopsy during the course of medicolegal death investigation were found to contain spermatozoa. The potential role of spermatozoa in the pathogenesis of corpora amylacea/calculi formation, granulomatous inflammation, local antigenic stimulation, and carcinogenesis is considered.
此前尚未在前列腺内发现过精子。在法医学死亡调查过程中，从非住院男性尸检获得的100个前列腺中，有9个被发现含有精子。本文探讨了精子在前列腺淀粉样体/结石形成、肉芽肿性炎症、局部抗原刺激及致癌作用发病机制中的潜在作用。
