Prostatic hyperplasia with fibrosis is a tumor?

Patient's question:

Hello! The total prostate-specific antigen in the blood test is 7.2, with a reference range of 0—Hello, my ultrasound results show benign prostatic hyperplasia with fibrosis. How is there a possibility of cancer? Thank you

Doctor's answer:

Prostatic calcification, also known as prostatic calcification fibrosis, is the recurrence of calcium salts in localized lesions within the body's tissues due to local inflammation or chemical changes. The primary cause is prostatitis. Prostatic calcification foci do not necessarily require treatment. Surgical removal may be considered for elderly patients with concomitant prostatic hyperplasia or those with significant symptoms. Your condition does not necessarily indicate a tumor issue. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
