Carcinoma of the prostate, commonly known as prostate cancer, is one of the most prevalent cancers affecting men over 50. At Curis Life Multi-Specialty Clinic in Andheri West, we offer specialized screening, diagnosis, and treatment for malignant prostate tumors, combining compassionate care with cutting-edge technology.
With rising awareness, men are increasingly seeking timely consultation for symptoms related to the prostate gland tumor. Our expert urologists in Andheri West help you navigate every step — from PSA testing and prostate MRI to biopsy and staging — ensuring that your treatment is personalized, minimally invasive, and in line with global protocols.
What is Prostate Cancer?
Prostatic carcinoma is a malignant tumor that develops in the prostate gland, a part of the male reproductive system responsible for producing seminal fluid. While many prostate cancers grow slowly, some can be aggressive and spread rapidly to nearby tissues or bones (bone metastasis from prostate cancer).
Early diagnosis plays a vital role in treatment success, making cancer screening for men over 50 a critical step.
Symptoms of Prostate Cancer
Most early-stage prostate cancers present few or no symptoms. However, you should consult a urologist in Andheri West if you notice:
- Difficulty urinating
- Frequent urination at night
- Weak or interrupted urine stream
- Painful urination or ejaculation
- Blood in semen or urine
- Pelvic or lower back pain
- Erectile dysfunction
- Unexplained weight loss or fatigue
It’s important to differentiate Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) from prostate cancer, as both may show similar urinary symptoms.
Causes and Risk Factors
While the exact cause remains unknown, the risk of developing prostatic cancer increases due to:
- Age (more common after 50)
- Family history of prostate or breast cancer
- African or South Asian ancestry
- High-fat diets and obesity
- Smoking and sedentary lifestyle
- Elevated PSA levels without symptoms
Genetic testing for prostate cancer may be advised for high-risk individuals.
Diagnosis of Carcinoma of the Prostate
At Curis Life in Andheri West, we follow a comprehensive diagnostic approach to ensure accurate detection:
- PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) Test: Elevated PSA levels may indicate cancer or inflammation.
- Digital Rectal Exam (DRE): Manual examination to assess prostate texture and size.
- Prostate MRI: Offers detailed imaging to detect abnormalities.
- Prostate Biopsy: Tissue sampling for microscopic analysis.
- Gleason Score: Grading system to assess cancer aggressiveness.
- Prostate Cancer Staging: Determines if the cancer is localized or advanced.
Early detection enables treatment when the prostate cancer cure rate is highest.
Treatment Options for Prostate Cancer
Treatment depends on the stage, Gleason score, age, and overall health. Curis Life offers all major options:
1. Active Surveillance
For localized prostate cancer with low risk — monitoring through regular PSA and MRI.
2. Hormone Therapy (ADT)
Androgen deprivation therapy helps shrink tumors by reducing testosterone.
3. Surgery (Prostatectomy)
- Traditional or robotic prostate surgery
- Ideal for localized or high-risk cases
4. Radiation Therapy
- External beam or brachytherapy
- Suitable for non-surgical candidates
5. Chemotherapy or Targeted Therapy
In advanced prostate cancer or when cancer has spread beyond the prostate.
Our expert urologist will guide you on the safest and most effective treatment path, whether it involves robotic-assisted procedures or minimally invasive surgery.
