Abstract
- The results of a macro- and microscopic study of aspirate obtained from prostatic cancer patients in 253 needle biopsies are presented. In well-differentiated cancer, it was abundant, blood-stained, with large layers of the prostatic epithelium and insignificant atypia and polymorphism of tumor cells. Aspirate from moderately-differentiated tumors was scarce, generally blood-free, with small layers of the epithelium and considerable levels of isolated moderately polymorphous cells. In poorly-differentiated tumors, aspirate was also abundant but usually blood-free and contained isolated sharply polymorphous tumor cells.
