Prostate calcification
Introduction
Introduction Prostate calcification, fibrosis, is a scar left after the inflammation of the prostate is healed, and is a precursor to prostate stones. Prostatic calculi are often accompanied by chronic prostatitis, which is usually seen by B-ultrasound. Due to the specific structure of the prostate, there is generally no good treatment for calcification and stones. Prostate calcification (fibrosis), stones will breed bacteria, so it is a cause of recurrent prostatitis, can not be ignored. The calcifications in the prostate are mostly calcifications or prostatic stones caused by chronic inflammation of the prostate. Generally, there are no symptoms and no treatment.
Cause
Cause
Prostate calcification indicates that there has been inflammation before, and now it is still, such as asymptomatic, without treatment. If you have difficulty urinating, you should go to the hospital in time. Prostate calcification into stones must be treated, calcification will develop into stones, causing various symptoms, some patients can not eliminate the symptoms for a long time, to do a comprehensive examination to see if there is calcium calcification, it is difficult to completely cure the prostate disease without treatment of calcium calcification.

1. The easiest way is to check the prostate through the anus examination. You can check the size, shape, and tenderness of the prostate to make a preliminary diagnosis and screening of the prostate disease. At the same time, prostate massage can be performed to check the changes in the properties and composition of the prostatic fluid.
2. B-ultrasound is a common method for examining the prostate. It can be accurately measured on the prostate by means of rectal detection and transabdominal abdomen detection. The error is not more than 5%. It has important diagnostic significance for various prostate diseases, and has the advantages of simplicity, non-invasiveness, no damage, and rapidity.
3. X-ray examination has important value in the diagnosis of prostate diseases.
4. For example, the plain film can detect the presence or absence of calcification or stone shadow in the prostate.
5. Contrast can help check for prostate hyperplasia or prostate cancer.
6. CT examination is more important for the differential diagnosis of prostate diseases.
7. Prostate biopsy is very useful for identifying the nature of prostate masses, and is extremely helpful in defining the tissue typing and cytological features of prostate tumors. It can be passed through a rectal aspiration biopsy or a perineal biopsy. It has some pain and trauma, but it is very necessary.
8. In addition, lower urinary tract urodynamics is very helpful in the diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Cystoscopy can directly observe the posterior urethra, fine sputum and prostatic and prostatic hyperplasia, which is also very important for the diagnosis of prostate disease.

The difference between prostate stones and prostate calcification
Clinically, the prostatic calculus is caused by the compression of the gland in the gland, and the gland is blocked by the non-proliferating outer gland. The prostatic fluid stored in the gland is concentrated and calcified, so the site of the gland is between the inner and outer glands. The age of appearance is more than 40 years old. Some people have a small prostate. How can there be such a strong echo between the internal and external glands? This is like the isovolumic transition between the heart and the contraction of the heart. The volume of the inner gland may not be large, but the pressure on the external gland is It is increased, and the prostate is about to enter the stage of volume increase.
Calcified plaque is one of the final outcomes of many tissues in our body after injury and necrosis. No matter what causes the prostate to be damaged, it may eventually form a calcified plaque. Due to the age of the prostate, the focal length Necrosis can occur in any part of the anterior spleen, so the age and location of calcification of the prostate are uncertain, and it is more common in the parenchyma. The appearance of calcification may indicate that the prostate may have been damaged. Some people have seen that the calcification of the prostate is suggestive of chronic prostatitis. It feels that this is somewhat far-fetched. If you encounter this condition, you need to go to the urology department of a regular hospital for detailed examination.
