MpMRI features of the lesions were retrospectively reviewed and summarized.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) scores of the patients were 4 or 5, with a medium diameter of 3.7\u2009cm (IQR 2.0-5.2\u2009cm). All the lesions involved the peripheral zone, of which three cases (3\/11, 27.3%) involved the transition zone simultaneously. A diffuse symmetrical distribution was found in five cases, a focal distribution in five cases, and a focal symmetrical distribution in one case. Both the surgical capsule and prostatic margin were bulged and compressed, but no signs of infiltration were found. Nearly all the lesions had moderate hypointensity on T2-weighted images and slightly higher signal intensity on T1-weighted images. Among the lesions, early enhancement occurred in all cases, prolonged enhancement occurred in eight cases, and ring enhancement persisted in one case. All lesions displayed periprostatic enhancement in the delayed phase.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Lesions distributed diffusely and symmetrically in the peripheral zone with preserved surgical capsule and margin are characteristic features of malakoplakia as opposed to cancer, especially in those with slightly high T1 signal intensity and delayed periprostatic enhancement.
