Fig. 1 Whole-mount section of a radical prostatectomy specimen. There are two cancer foci (dotted areas). The larger nodule is the dominant or index tumor. It is an acinar adenocarcinoma with three Gleason patterns: pattern 3 (60% of the tumur, primary pattern), pattern 4 (35% of the tumor, secondary pattern), and pattern 5 (5% of the tumor, tertiary pattern). The smaller nodule is an acinar adenocarcinoma of Gleason score 3+3=6 (histology not shown).
