An enlarged prostate does not increase the chances of malignancy occurring. A condition known as prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) has been known as a precancerous condition. Research has suggested that sexually transmitted diseases such as chlamydia and syphilis also increase a man's chance of developing prostate cancer. It is not a proven fact that any infections are the direct causes of prostate cancer, however.
