[So-called glomera in the region of the prostate].
In three cases prostate biopsies revealed structures which showed the histological characteristics of so called glomera (chemodectomas), one within the prostatic tissue, the others in the area of the capsule. Clinicians and pathologists to avoid misinterpretation have to be aware of the fact that this wellknown structure can occur in biopsy material.
