High-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia, abbreviated as HGPIN, is considered the precursor for prostate carcinoma.

It may be referred to as prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia, abbreviated PIN.

General

  • Thought to be a precursor lesion for prostate adenocarcinoma.
    • Multifocal HGPIN considered a risk for prostate cancer on re-biopsy.[1][2]
    • A small focus of HGPIN does not appear to be associated with an increased risk for prostate cancer on re-biopsy at one year if the initial biopsy had 8 or more cores.[3]

Low-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia:

  • Not reported and generally believed to be irrelevant biologically/clinically.
    • PIN not otherwise specified refers to HGPIN.
    • Low-grade PIN has the architecture of HGPIN but lacks the nuclear atypia.

HGPIN and cancer on follow-up biopsy

Prostate cancer on follow-up biopsy by number of HGPIN sites from Merrimen et al.:[2]

Number of cores

Odds ratio of cancer
on follow-up (95% CI)
0 1.00 (reference)
1 1.02 (0.73-1.40)
2 1.55 (1.08-2.21)
3 1.99 (1.16-3.40)
4 2.66 (1.10-6.40)

Gross

  • Not evident on gross.

Microscopic

Features:[4][5]

  • Medium to large glands with architectural changes - see HGPIN architecture below.
    • Described as "epithelial hyperplasia".
  • Diagnosed on basis of nuclear changes.
    • Hyperchromatic nuclei - key (low power) feature.
    • Nucleoli present - key (high power) feature.
    • Often increased NC ratio.
    • Nuclear enlargement.

Notes:

  • Nucleoli should be visible with the 20x objective.
    • If one uses the 40x objective... one over calls.
  • May need IHC for cancer versus HGPIN.
  • Nucleoli should be present in >= 10% of cells in a gland to call it HGPIN.[6]
    • This criterium is not required by all pathologists.

HGPIN architecture

There are several forms:[7][8]

  • Flat - uncommon.
  • Tufting - common.
  • Micropapillary - common.
  • Cribriform - rare.

Note:

  • The architectural pattern is not thought to have any prognostic significance; however, it may be useful for differentiating it from benign prostate.

Images

IHC

  • HGPIN: AMACR +ve, p63 +ve, HMWCK +ve.
  • Cancer: AMACR +ve, p63 -ve, HMWCK -ve.
  • Normal: AMACR -ve, p63 +ve, HMWCK +ve.

A. PROSTATE, RIGHT LATERAL SUPERIOR, BIOPSY:
- HIGH-GRADE PROSTATIC INTRAEPITHELIAL NEOPLASIA;

If there is (isolated) HGPIN in more than 3 or 4 cores:

COMMENT:
As high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia is found in multiple cores, close 
follow-up is suggested, with a re-biopsy when indicated.
