Abstract
INTRODUCTION Prostatic stromal tumours of uncertain malignant potential (STUMPs) are rare prostate tumours. The purpose of this study was to investigate the magnetic resonance imaging features of STUMPs. METHODS A total of 12 patients with STUMP confirmed with pathology who underwent MRI from 2012 to 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Pathological characteristics including histopathology and immunohistochemistry were also recorded. RESULTS Among 12 STUMPs, the tumours were detected in the peripheral zone (41.7%[n = 5]) and transitional zone (58.3% [n = 7]) of the prostate. 8 cases (66.7%) were round shape. All lesions were well-defined and compressed the adjacent structures but without signs of an invasion. Homogeneous T1WI and heterogeneous T2WI signals were observed in the STUMPs. The tumours were mainly composed of solid components, while intratumoral cystic change (58.3%[n = 7]) and haemorrhage (8.3%[n = 1]) were seen. 10 cases(83.3%) were seen as relatively high DWI signal, while 2 cases(16.7%) with no increase in DWI. The mean ADC value was 1.084 ± 0.193 (range: 0.864-1.489 × 10-3 mm2 /s). STUMPs had heterogeneous enhancement, with persistent or gradual enhancement. In immunohistochemical staining, Vim, CD34, PR and SMA were positive in the majority of STUMPs. CONCLUSION MRI features of STUMP are presented as regular, well-defined and isolated prostatic mass with intact pseudocapsule. The presence of heterogeneous T2WI signal, intratumoral cystic change, slightly low mean ADC value and persistent or gradual enhancement may help predict the STUMPs.

Abstract
The differential diagnosis of abnormalities in the prostate is broad, covering common (acinar adenocarcinoma, benign prostatic hyperplasia, chronic prostatitis, hemorrhage, cysts, calcifications, atrophy and fibrosis) and less common conditions (tumors other than acinar adenocarcinoma, granulomatous prostatitis containing tuberculosis, abscesses and other conditions, and idiopathic disorders such as amyloidosis and exophytic benign prostatic hyperplasia). Recent advances in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the prostate gland and imaging guidelines, such as the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System version 2.1 (PI-RADS v2.1), have dramatically improved the ability to distinguish common abnormalities, especially the ability to detect clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa). Overlap can exist in the clinical history and imaging features associated with various common/uncommon prostate abnormalities, and biopsy is often required but is invasive. Prostate abnormalities can be divided into two categories: category 1, diseases for which PI-RADS scores are suitable for use, and category 2, diseases for which PI-RADS scores are unsuitable for use. Radiologists must have an intimate knowledge of other diseases, especially uncommon conditions. Past relevant history, symptoms, age, serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, MRI manifestations, and the applicability of the PI-RADS assessment should be considered when diagnosing prostate abnormalities.

Abstract
Stromal tumour of uncertain malignant potential of the prostate is a rare tumour with a variable clinical behaviour ranging from incidentally detected indolent tumours that never progress, to aggressive diseases almost identical to sarcomas that may invade surrounding organs or develop metastases. Surgical excision is generally recommended for local diseases; however, owing to its diverse clinical outcomes, optimal management may vary from surgery alone to wide excision combined with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Therefore, preoperative evaluation of the malignant potential of the disease is essential to decide the treatment strategy. Herein, we report a case of stromal tumour of uncertain malignant potential successfully treated with minimally invasive robot-assisted radical prostatectomy alone under the diagnosis of the disease with low malignant potential based on the findings of positron emission tomography with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose.
