## Abstract Prostates obtained at autopsy from black and white males in the United States of America, from Colombians, from Japanese migrants in Hawaii, and from Japanese in Japan (all over 50 years old) were serially stepβsectioned and examined microscopically using identical techniques and diagno
Latent carcinomas of the prostate, discovered at autopsy in men with no prior treatment for prostatic disease, were studied for ras proto-oncogene mutations. Subjects included 2 I Japanese, I 5 U.S. whites, I 5 US. blacks, 20 Hawaiian Japanese and 10 Colombians. PCR and sequence-specific oligonucleo
## Background: Even the high incidence of clinically diagnosed prostate cancer is exceeded by the frequency of tumors detected at autopsy. however, there is some debate concerning the malignant potential of these so-called "latent prostate cancers." in this study, prostate cancers detected at autop
