Is there any possibility of prostate cancer after previous transurethral resection of the prostate?

  It is certainly possible to develop prostate cancer. The reasons for this are as follows: prostate cancer tends to occur in the peripheral zone of the prostate, while prostate enlargement (BPH) tends to occur in the migratory zone. The extent to which the peripheral zone is removed depends on the skill of the urologist, but TURP is not a complete removal of the entire prostate, but rather a removal of the enlarged prostate tissue. It is necessary to screen for prostate cancer on a regular basis because the prostate tissue that remains after surgery can continue to grow and there is a risk of prostate cancer. Only radical prostate cancer surgery can completely remove the entire prostate gland. If the prostate is enlarged, an open prostatectomy may be performed. Although this procedure removes more prostate tissue than TURP, it still does not completely remove all prostate tissue.  Prostate cancer is not innate and the incidence of prostate cancer increases with age. Therefore, even if you have TURP at a young age, you may still develop prostate cancer at a later age, so it is recommended that you be screened for prostate cancer.
