| Abstract |
The purpose of this retrospective study is to evaluate the frequency and further characterize the pathological features of common and uncommon histological lesions in 111 canine prostatic samples. Benign prostatic hyperplasia, suppurative and non-suppurative prostatitis, and prostate cancer were observed individually or in combination in 45, 11, 68 and 50 samples, respectively. Six growth patterns of prostatic carcinoma were differentiated: papillary, cribriform, solid, small acinar/ductal, signet ring, mucinous. In a few cases, perineurial invasion and collagenous micronodules were observed. Lesions considered preneoplastic in men, such as high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) and prostatic inflammatory atrophy (PIA), were observed in 27 and 21 histological samples, respectively. This study represents a detailed characterization of the different histological subtypes of canine prostate cancer. The awareness of the unusual patterns might be critical in avoiding diagnostic misinterpretation. The high prevalence of PIA and HGPIN underlines the reasonable chance of their detection in routine biopsy specimens. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 29 November 2014.
All research outputs
#16,578,616
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from Research in Veterinary Science
#1,107
of 2,350 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#152,732
of 271,232 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Research in Veterinary Science
#9
of 30 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,350 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.8. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 52% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 271,232 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 30 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 70% of its contemporaries.
