PURPOSE: To evaluate the clinical features and biochemical recurrence (BCR) in prostate cancer (PCa) with high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 893 patients who underwent a radical prostatectomy for PCa between 2011 and 2012 at Asan Medical Center; 752 of these patients who did not receive neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy and were followed up for more than 1 year were included. The cohort was divided into two groups-patients with and without HGPIN-and their characteristics were compared. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze factors affecting BCR. RESULTS: In total, 652 study patients (86.7%) had HGPIN. There were no significant differences in preoperative factors between the two groups, including age (p=0.369) and preoperative prostate-specific antigen concentration (p=0.234). Patients with HGPIN had a higher Gleason score (p=0.012), more frequent multiple tumor (p=0.013), and more perineural invasion (p=0.012), but no other postoperative pathologic characteristics were significantly different between the two groups. There were no significant differences in BCR (13.0% vs. 11.5%, p=0.665) and HGPIN was not associated with BCR (p=0.745). In multivariate analysis, only the T stage (p<0.001) was associated with BCR. CONCLUSIONS: PCa patients with HGPIN have a higher Gleason score, more frequent multiple tumors, and more perineural invasion than those without HGPIN. The presence of HGPIN is not an independent predictor of BCR.

PURPOSE: To investigate the differences in the cancer detection rate and pathological findings on a second prostate biopsy according to benign diagnosis, high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN), and atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP) on first biopsy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the records of 1,323 patients who underwent a second prostate biopsy between March 1995 and November 2012. We divided the patients into three groups according to the pathologic findings on the first biopsy (benign diagnosis, HGPIN, and ASAP). We compared the cancer detection rate and Gleason scores on second biopsy and the unfavorable disease rate after radical prostatectomy among the three groups. RESULTS: A total of 214 patients (16.2%) were diagnosed with prostate cancer on a second biopsy. The rate of cancer detection was 14.6% in the benign diagnosis group, 22.1% in the HGPIN group, and 32.1% in the ASAP group, respectively (p<0.001). When patients were divided into subgroups according to the number of positive cores, the rate of cancer detection was 16.7%, 30.5%, 31.0%, and 36.4% in patients with a single core of HGPIN, more than one core of HGPIN, a single core of ASAP, and more than one core of ASAP, respectively. There were no significant differences in Gleason scores on second biopsy (p=0.324) or in the unfavorable disease rate after radical prostatectomy among the three groups (benign diagnosis vs. HGPIN, p=0.857, and benign diagnosis vs. ASAP, p=0.957, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with multiple cores of HGPIN or any core number of ASAP on a first biopsy had a significantly higher cancer detection rate on a second biopsy. Repeat biopsy should be considered and not be delayed in those patients.
