Prostate cancer with neuroendocrine differentiation is a rare group of prostate cancers that is hypothesized to evolve in the context androgen deprivation therapy.[1]
Neuroendocrine carcinoma of the prostate redirect here.
Subclassification
It is subclassified as per Epstein et al.:[1]
- Usual prostate adenocarcinoma with neuroendocrine differentiation.
- Adenocarcinoma with Paneth cell neuroendocrine differentiation.
- Carcinoid tumour of the prostate.
- Small cell carcinoma of the prostate gland.
- Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the prostate.
- Mixed (small and/or large cell) neuroendocrine carcinoma-acinar adenocarcinoma.
IHC
- PSA typically negative in NE carcinoma.
