Several individual prostate glands fill the image. The epithelium of the prostate, simple or pseudostratified columnar, and its underlying connective tissue are thrown into low folds. Prostatic concretions, probably precipitates of secretory products, accumulate with age and may calcify; concretions are diagnostic for the prostate. 200x
