What Does This Biopsy Report Of Prostate Indicate?
Brief Answer:
No, it does not mean that youhave a cancer.
Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Thank you for the query.
No, it does not. That is why biopsy has been done. As long as the prostate cells wont be checked under microscope, no one can tell if its a cancer or not. It can be benign lesions as well. For now, cancer is only a suspicion. It can be more possible if your PSA is very high or there have been lymph nodes seen enlarged.
So you need to wait for the result.
Hope this will help. Feel free to ask further questions.
Regards.
