Figure 2 Gleason grade patterns for prostate cancer lesions (A) Gleason grade 1 (arrows outline an individual prostate acinus; original magnification ×40. (B) Gleason grade 2 (original magnification ×40). (C) Gleason grade 3 (arrows show a small amount of individual cell infiltration into surrounding stroma; original magnification ×100). (D) Gleason grade 4 (increased stromal invasion; white arrows show some areas of gland fusion and poorly defined lumens; green arrow shows one of a few areas in which Gleason pattern 3 is present; original magnification ×40). (E) Gleason grade 5 (solid sheets of cells with no glandular structures and poorly differentiated cells; original magnification ×100). L=lumen.
