The histology report on LHs chips from his recent TURP is now live in the portal and no nasty surprises thank goodness. Interestingly it says that they are not sure if he is on ADT and if so it is inappropriate for them to give a Gleason score but in case he isn't then they would say it would be Gleason 9 (4+5) which is the same as his biopsy. Also interesting that they noted that there was no cribriform pattern noted and no perinural invasion, both of which were notes on his biopsy. The sample was 14g of tissue, 60% of which showed cancer.
And I wanted to apologise for my last post when I was in a complete panic about the possible results. I hope I was not rude or dismissive of the responses. I just could not seem to see past my fears at that time and logic went out of the window. Sorry again
