TORNA INDIETROPatologia comparata del tumore alla prostata del cane e dell'uomo
Sebbene relativamente raro nei cani, il cancro alla prostata (PCa) è il tumore non cutaneo più comune negli uomini. Le ghiandole prostatiche umane e canine condividono molte caratteristiche funzionali, anatomiche e fisiologiche. A causa di queste somiglianze, il PCa canino è stato proposto come modello per il PCa negli uomini.
