Preferred Label : prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia;
MeSH definition : A premalignant change arising in the prostatic epithelium, regarded as the most important
and most likely precursor of prostatic adenocarcinoma. The neoplasia takes the form
of an intra-acinar or ductal proliferation of secretory cells with unequivocal nuclear
anaplasia, which corresponds to nuclear grade 2 and 3 invasive prostate cancer.;
