Neuroendocrine differentiation in the setting of prostatic carcinoma: contemporary assessment of a consecutive series.

In this contemporary series, the majority of NE differentiation in the setting of PCa was seen posttherapy. We highlight the tendencies of small-cell/HGNEC and PCa with diffuse NE differentiation by IHC to occur in metastatic settings, while morphologically combined high-grade PCa + small-cell/HGNEC and 'Paneth cell-like' change occur in primary disease.
