Abstract

Prostate needle biopsy currently is the gold standard method for the diagnosis, management, and prognosis of prostate cancer. Obtaining an accurate diagnosis is crucial for pursuing proper patient management. This article discusses histologic mimickers of prostate carcinoma highlighting microscopic features that are helpful to reach a correct diagnosis and emphasizing potential diagnostic pitfalls.
