Patient's question:
I found out I have a prostate tumor. The doctor said I need to have a biopsy, and also said I need a cystoscopy? Are these two procedures related? Besides that, you found out you have hepatitis. Can you be cured with medication?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is a benign disease with a good prognosis when treated correctly, while prostate cancer is a malignant tumor that may be a slow-growing one with different treatment options. Prostate hyperplasia can also be examined with cystoscopy, allowing for a detailed observation of the prostate image and the degree of bladder involvement. The primary purpose of cystoscopy is to carefully check for bladder tumors and to monitor for recurrence post-surgery.
