"Epithelial elements usually express cytokeratins PSA and PSAP, sarcomatoid components are usually positive for vimentin or smooth muscle actin. Cytokeratin expression by the spindle cell component rather suggests a common origin than a collision tumour ¹."

"Associations"

Line 24:1 · "Associations" is under the wrong parent heading (found under "Radiographic features").

Commas

suggestion

"Similar to prostate carcinoma, typical symptoms are related to voiding, such as poor flow, hesitancy and incomplete voiding and the associated bladder filling, such as dysuria, nocturia, urinary urgency and frequency. Perineal or rectal pain, burning on ejaculation, is less common. Constitutional symptoms such as weight loss may also occur ¹."

Line 9:33 · More than 5 commas in a single sentence might make it more difficult to read.
