    GlossaryProstate Cancer

    cancer that develops in the prostate gland in men

    Prostate cancer, also known as prostatic carcinoma, is a type of cancer that occurs in the prostate gland, which is a small walnut-shaped gland in men that produces seminal fluid. It is one of the most common types of cancer in men and can range from slow-growing tumors that may not cause significant harm to aggressive forms that can spread quickly to other parts of the body. Early detection through screening methods like PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) tests and digital rectal exams can improve treatment outcomes.
