Does An Enlarged Prostate With Central Calcifications Together With Suspicious Lesion At The Right Anterolateral Aspect Indicate Prostate Cancer?

My prostate gland is slightly enlarged with central calcifications measuring 2.9 cm x 4.3 cm x 4.2 cm with approximate weight of 33.6 grams. The prostatic capsule is intact. There is a suspiciious lession at the right anterolateral aspect measuring 1.3cmx0.8 cm..my question is there is a posibility of prostate cancer.

Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor.
I have read your query and here is my advice.

I am giving you information as a physician(but not a urologist) and also as a patient who has had surgery to remove prostate cancer. The cause of the suspicious lesion needs to be determined. I believe you need to have a biopsy as soon as possible.

Hope I have answered your question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
