Anatomical tissue or structure located before or in front of the prostate gland.
From Latin 'ante' (before) + 'prostate' (from Greek 'prostatēs', from 'pro-' before + 'histanai' to stand). The term anatomically specifies position relative to the prostate.
While rarely used in modern medical terminology, this word represents how doctors used to create their medical vocabulary by stringing together Latin and Greek elements to describe every anatomical location imaginable.
