Prostatic Urethra, internal view

This image of the prostatic urethra was taken from a fresh prostatectomy specimen.  The arrow points to the urothelium.  The urothelium rests on the lamina propria, which appears as a bright layer, with some oval dark areas, most likely representing edema or inflammation.
