Abstract:

An adenocarcinoma is a type of cancer that arises in the cells of glands. Most cells in the prostate gland are of the glandular type, which means that adenocarcinoma is the most common type of cancer to occur in the prostate. Cancer occurs when the genes of a cell become abnormal (mutation), causing the cell to multiply and interfere with the normal function of a tissue. Once the cancer reaches a certain size, the abnormal cells can spread to other parts of the body and cause cancerous tumours to grow. This phenomenon is known as metastasis. If a tumour is capable of spreading to other parts of the body in this way, it is called malignant. Adenocarcinoma of the prostate is malignant, however many types grow extremely slowly, and so are unlikely to spread before a man dies of other causes.
