1. Abstract
Tuberculosis is common in Bangladesh due to poverty, overcrowding and open case
and also due to Multi Drug Resistance (MDR). Tuberculosis patients are usually immuno-
deficient. Prostate lesions are common in male over 50 year include Benign Enlargement of
Prostate(BHP), Prostatic Intracpithelial Neoplasia(PIN) and Prostatic Carcinoma (PCa). May
risk factors are attributed for prostatic lesions including chronic inflammation like tuberculosis.
With this in mind an attempt was made to find out if there is any association of tuberculosis
and BEP, PIN & PCa. A total of 85 biopsy sample of histologically diagnosed cases of different
prostatic lesion were subjected to Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) by Xene expert for MTB.
None of the 85 biopsy sample show presence of MTB. The findings indicate that tuberculosis is
not a risk factor for prostatic lesions in prostatic sample in Bangladesh.
3. Introduction
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by the bacterium mycobac-
terium tuberculosis is a global health problem. According to the
World Health Organization (WHO) one third of the world popu-
lation is latently infected with M. tuberculosis An estimated 9.6
million people developed TB and 1.5 million died from the dis-
ease in 2014 [1]. Pulmonary TB is the most common form of the
disease; however, 20-25% of cases are extra-pulmonary in nature.
Genitourinary TB accounts for 5-10% of extra-pulmonary cases
in developed countries and 15-20% of cases in developing coun-
tries [2]. Tuberculosis of the prostate gland is seen in 25.6% of
genitourinary system. Studies have shown that approximately 20%
of all human cancers in adults result from chronic infection and
inflammatory states [3]. Chronic prostate inflammation acceler-
ates initiation of prostate cancer originating from basal cells and
accelerates prostate cancer originating from basal cells and accel-
erates prostate cancer progression. There are reports describing
TB of testis and prostate mimicking testicular cancer and pros-
tatic caused by M. tuberculosis infection serving as a predisposing

factor for prostate cancer [4]. Review of literature revealed two
published cases of tuberculosis prostatitis in Bangladesh [5,6]. As
Bangladesh ranks 6th
among 22 TB burden countries globally [7],
we thought to investigate whether there is any association between
TB of prostate and development of prostatic lesions especially can-
cer in a cross section of Bangladeshi population.
4. Method
The study was a retrospective conventional sampling
analysis based on 85 prostatic biopsy samples, each collected by
Trans-Urethral Resection of Prostate (TURP) from 85 patients,
admitted in different hospitals of Dhaka city, Bangladesh, namely
BIRDEM hospital, Dhaka Community hospital, Uttara Crescent
hospital and Gastroliver clinic between July 2013 and December,
2014. The male patients included in this study had symptoms of
prostaic lesions such as frequency, urgency, dysuria, urinary in-
continence, urinary tract infection, inadequate voiding and low
back pain. The tissue samples along with two known confirmed
TB lymph node tissue samples were used as positive controls and
were processed for molecular diagnosis of TB by conventional

PCR [8], which detects a 123 bp fragment of insertion element IS
6110 mycobacterium tuberculosis and used for diagnosis of extra
pulmonary tuberculosis.
5. Result
The age range of patients were 35-90 years with the
mean of 65.82 years.. The histopathology of the 85 cases of
suspected prostatic revealed Granulomatous prostatitis in 3
(3.5%) possibily due to extension from Genitourinary Tu-
berculosis Benign Enlargement of Prostate in 48 (56.5%),
PIN in 26 (30.6%) and PCa in 8 (9.4%) cases. The PCR prod-
ucts run on an 1.5% agarose gel, revealed that no amplicon
was produced from all the sample tested as a result of ampli-
fication from the primers.
6. Conclusion
Although prevalence of tuberculosis is high is Ban-
gladesh still tuberculosis is not a risk factor for prostatic
lesion is Bangladesh population. Gene Xpert for formalin-
fixed paraffin embedded tissues in ruling out whether a sus-
pected patient is infected with M. tuberculosis or not is any
tissue sample suspected is a reliable method of choice for
detection of tuberculosis [9,10].

Is Tuberculosis a Risk Factor for Different Prostatic Lesions Including Prostate Cancer in Bangladesh

Abstract Tuberculosis is common in Bangladesh due to poverty, overcrowding and open case and also due to Multi Drug Resistance (MDR). Tuberculosis patients are usually immuno- deficient. Prostate lesions are common in male over 50 year include Benign Enlargement of Prostate(BHP), Prostatic Intracpithelial Neoplasia(PIN) and Prostatic Carcinoma (PCa). May risk factors are attributed for prostatic lesions including chronic inflammation like tuberculosis. With this in mind an attempt was made to find out if there is any association of tuberculosis and BEP, PIN & PCa. A total of 85 biopsy sample of histologically diagnosed cases of different prostatic lesion were subjected to Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) by Xene expert for MTB. None of the 85 biopsy sample show presence of MTB. The findings indicate that tuberculosis is not a risk factor for prostatic lesions in prostatic sample in Bangladesh. 3. Introduction Tuberculosis (TB), caused by the bacterium mycobac- terium tuberculosis is a global health problem. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) one third of the world popu- lation is latently infected with M. tuberculosis An estimated 9.6 million people developed TB and 1.5 million died from the dis- ease in 2014 [1]. Pulmonary TB is the most common form of the disease; however, 20-25% of cases are extra-pulmonary in nature. Genitourinary TB accounts for 5-10% of extra-pulmonary cases in developed countries and 15-20% of cases in developing coun- tries [2]. Tuberculosis of the prostate gland is seen in 25.6% of genitourinary system. Studies have shown that approximately 20% of all human cancers in adults result from chronic infection and inflammatory states [3]. Chronic prostate inflammation acceler- ates initiation of prostate cancer originating from basal cells and accelerates prostate cancer originating from basal cells and accel- erates prostate cancer progression. There are reports describing TB of testis and prostate mimicking testicular cancer and pros- tatic caused by M. tuberculosis infection serving as a predisposing Clinics of Oncology Citation: Tahminur R, Mumu MA, Ashfaque H, Sayera B and Manjurul Karim M. . Is Tuberculosis a Risk Factor for Different Prostatic Lesions Including Prostate Cancer in Bangladesh: Mini Review. Clinics of Oncology. 2018; 1(1): 1-2 united Prime Publications: http://unitedprimepub.com factor for prostate cancer [4]. Review of literature revealed two published cases of tuberculosis prostatitis in Bangladesh [5,6]. As Bangladesh ranks 6th among 22 TB burden countries globally [7], we thought to investigate whether there is any association between TB of prostate and development of prostatic lesions especially can- cer in a cross section of Bangladeshi population. 4. Method The study was a retrospective conventional sampling analysis based on 85 prostatic biopsy samples, each collected by Trans-Urethral Resection of Prostate (TURP) from 85 patients, admitted in different hospitals of Dhaka city, Bangladesh, namely BIRDEM hospital, Dhaka Community hospital, Uttara Crescent hospital and Gastroliver clinic between July 2013 and December, 2014. The male patients included in this study had symptoms of prostaic lesions such as frequency, urgency, dysuria, urinary in- continence, urinary tract infection, inadequate voiding and low back pain. The tissue samples along with two known confirmed TB lymph node tissue samples were used as positive controls and were processed for molecular diagnosis of TB by conventional 2.

Result The age range of patients were 35-90 years with the mean of 65.82 years.. The histopathology of the 85 cases of suspected prostatic revealed Granulomatous prostatitis in 3 (3.5%) possibily due to extension from Genitourinary Tu- berculosis Benign Enlargement of Prostate in 48 (56.5%), PIN in 26 (30.6%) and PCa in 8 (9.4%) cases. The PCR prod- ucts run on an 1.5% agarose gel, revealed that no amplicon was produced from all the sample tested as a result of ampli- fication from the primers. 6. Conclusion Although prevalence of tuberculosis is high is Ban- gladesh still tuberculosis is not a risk factor for prostatic lesion is Bangladesh population. Gene Xpert for formalin- fixed paraffin embedded tissues in ruling out whether a sus- pected patient is infected with M. tuberculosis or not is any tissue sample suspected is a reliable method of choice for detection of tuberculosis [9,10]. 7.
