Scientific information about the molecular mechanisms of Severe Acute Respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral infection reveals crossing paths with prostate carcinogenesis through induction of recurrent TMPRSS-ERG gene fusion in an inflammatory microenvironment. Therefore, possibility of a subsequent increased risk of prostate cancer after this viral pandemic requires proper attention with further research.
