Prostate is of great clinical importance and ultrasonography is an ideal diagnostic aid. High frequency transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS) provides a remarkably detailed view of the prostate. This study is aimed at demonstrating the ultrasonographic changes in the human prostate disorders during successive physiological changes of growth. This was an observational study done in Regional cancer center (RCC), Trivandrum. Ultrasonographic anatomy of human prostate was done at RCC, Trivandrum. Sonogram of 40 cases in different decades of growth was observed. Internal Anatomy and sonographic changes of the images were studied. The echotextural pattern of the normal prostate, hyperplastic prostate, abscess, cyst and carcinoma prostate are described and discussed. Transition zone is enlarged in hyperplasia and carcinoma cast hypoechoic shadows in peripheral zone. Volume of the prostate increases with increase in age.
