The prostate is divided into the peripheral, transition and central zones, which have different prostate cancer incidences and prognoses. Differences between the zones suggest their potential roles in tumour aggressiveness, but treatment of prostate cancer remains zonal agnostic. Improved understanding of the zones and their roles in tumorigenesis could improve prostate cancer management.
