Abstract

Prostate cancer occupies 2nd place on the prevalence and 6th place on mortality among all cancers in men. That is not to deny the social importance of prostate cancer, but attention is drawn to significant advantage of newly detected cases above the cancer-specific mortality. «Gold standard» for diagnosis includes morphological study of tissue fragments after transrectal multifocal prostate biopsy. The importance of the differential diagnosis is particularly relevant when analyzing fragments of prostate tissue obtained from biopsies as a false positive result may cause unnecessary and excessive treatment. This article presents the most common benign processes that can simulate various grade adenocarcinoma. Awareness about the presence of such cancer mimics and careful examination of micropreparations in most cases allows to come to the correct conclusion.
