55
Q

What does the prostate consist of?

glands and stroma

-glands are composed of an inner layer of luminal cells and an outer layer of basal cells

56
Q

What do the glands of the prostate do? What maintains the glands and stroma?

A
  • secrete alkaline, milky fluid that is added to sperm and seminal vesicle fluid to make semen
  • androgens
57
Q

What causes the acute inflammation of the prostate?

A

bacteria:

Young adults-Chalmydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Older adults-E. coli and pseudomonas

58
Q

What is this:
presents as dysuria and chills
boggy and tender prostate
prostatic secretions show WBCs but cultures are negative

A

Acute prostatitis

59
Q

What is this:
chronic inflammation of prostate
presents as dysuria with pelvic or low back pain
prostatic secretions show WBCs, but cultures are negative

A

Chronic prostatitis

60
Q

What is this:
hyperplasia of prostatic stroma and gland
no increased risk for cancer
age related change (present in most men by age 60)
Related to DHT

A

BPH

61
Q

Why is BPH related to DHT?

A

-testoterone is converted to DHT by 5a-reductase in stromal cells. DHT acts on the androgen receptor of stromal and epithelial cells resulting in hyperplastic nodules

62
Q

What are the clinical features of BPH?

A

impaired bladder emptying with increased risk for infection and hydronephrosis, problems starting and stopping urine stream, dribbling, hypertrophy of the bladd wall smooth muscle increase risk for bladder diverticula, microscopic hematuria

63
Q

How do you treat BPH?

A

a1 antagonist to relax SM (terazosin)
5a reductase inhibitor- blocks conversion of testosterone to DHT (can be used for male patterned baldness too, SE are gynecomastia and sexual dysfunction)

64
Q

What is this:

malignant proliferation of prostatic gland. Most COMMON cancer in men. 2nd most common cause of cancer related death

A

Prostate adenocarcinoma

65
Q

What are the risk factors of prostate adenocarcinoma?

A

age, race (AA>caucasions>asians), and diet high in saturated fat

66
Q

Prostatic carcinoma is usually clincally (blank). Why?

A

silent
-usually arises in the peripheral , posterior region of the prostate and hence does not produce urinary symptoms early on

67
Q

When do you begin screening for prostate adenocarcinoma?
What will the screening tell you?
What is required to confirm the presence of carcinoma and what will you find?

A

begins at age 50 with DRE and PSA
PSA >10 ng/mL is highly worrisome
decreased % free PSA is suggestive of cancer
-prostatic biopsy, shows small, invasive glands with prominent nucleoli

68
Q

What is the gleason grading system and what is it for?

A
  • Gleason grading system is based on architecture alone (and not nuclear atypia)
    1. multiple regions of the tumor are assessed because architecture varies from area to area
    2. a score (1-5) is assigned for 2 distinct areas and then added to produce a final score (2-10)
    3. higher score suggests worse prognosis
69
Q

Where does a prostate adenocarcinoma spread to?

A

lumbar spine or pelvis

70
Q

What are the clinical findings of prostate adenocarcinoma?

A

osteoblastic metastases
Increased Alkaline phosphatase
PSA
PAP

71
Q

How do you treat localized prostate adenocarcinoma?

How do you treat advanced disease?

A

prostatectomy

hormone suppression to reduce testosterone and DHT

72
Q

How do you hormonally suppress testosterone and DHT to treat adenocarcinoma?

A
  • continuous GnRH analogs (leuprolife) shuts down the anterior pituitary gonadotrophs (LH and FSH are reduced)
  • Flutamide acts as a competitive inhibitor at the androgen receptor
73
Q

What cells prevent urothelium from losing water into the hypertonic urine?

A

Umbrella cells

74
Q

What is this:
non specific inflammation on histology, negative leukocyte esterase and nitrates b/c this is not due to a uropathogen (i.e. symptoms but no infection)

A

Interstitial cystitis

75
Q

What cause malakoplakia?

A

macrophage defect, infectious process

76
Q

Q

What is this:
forms from nests of von brune
forms due to bladder irritation

A

79
Q

What is this:

shedding of renal tubular cells that implant in the bladder

A

80
Q

What are the 2 types of bladder injuries?

A

flat and papillary

81
Q

What is the most common location of the congenital anomalie of an abnormal urethral opening?

A

hypospadias -> associated with cryptochidism

82
Q

What is this;

a congenital narrowing of the opening of the foreskin so that it cannot be retracted.

A

phimosis (caused by inflammation)

83
Q 
What is this:
is an inflammation of the glans 
(the rounded head) of the penis. 
What can cause this?
What is this associated with?
A

Balanitis

Candida, anaerobic bacteria, gardnerella, pyogenic bacteria

Smegma

84
Q

What is this:

flat lesions with atypia is…?

A

urothelial adenoma in situ or urothelial carcinoma ( for flat lesions, carcinomas can be non-invasive or invasive)

85
Q

What is this:

low malignant potential; little bit of atypia, thickened layers
