Article Synopsis
  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer (PCa) are prevalent urological conditions in men, potentially influenced by viral infections.
  • A study of 98 patients revealed a higher prevalence of viruses in PCa tissues compared to BPH, particularly EBV and HSV-6, suggesting a possible link between viral infections and prostate cancer development.
  • The findings indicate a need for further research into the role of these viruses in prostate diseases, which could lead to new preventive and treatment strategies.
