Abstract:
Prostate cancer shows uneven distribution within the gland. The incidence rate in peripheral zones is higher than that in transition zone and central zone. Recently, prostate cancers in different zones have been found to have differences in clinical, pathological, molecular characteristics, and prognosis. However, the research method of spatial distribution still lacks standardization. In this paper, we will review the research progress on the spatial distribution of prostate cancer from the aspects of methodology, spatial distribution pattern, and clinical significance.
