Notes |
TA98 footnote | Lobuli prostatae Within each lobe of the prostate, four lobules are defined by the arrangement of ducts and connective tissue and may be distinguished with the unaided eye. The combined inferoposterior/inferolateral lobules, the superomedial lobules and the anteromedial lobules correspond to the histological entities of McNeal [1988. Am J Surg Pathol 12: 619-633], and widely called after his usage, peripheral, central and transition zones respectively. A technique for the gross dissection of the inferoposterior, inferolateral and combined superomedial/anteromedial lobules was described by Tisell and Salander [1975. Scand J Urol Nephrol 9: 185-191 1975]. The inferoposterior and inferolateral lobules, together with the commissure, form a hollow cone within which the superomedial lobes surround the ejaculatory ducts and the anteromedial lobes flank the proximal urethra. |
