Implications of a diagnosis of atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP) and high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) on prostate biopsy: a 5-year follow-up study

ConclusionThe findings of this study suggest that a biopsy diagnosis of ASAP  ± HGPIN, on either initial or surveillance biopsy, provides support for earlier repeat mpMRI and/or re-biopsy. This may assist in directing to early re-biopsy those patients likely to have intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer.
