Association between pre–biopsy white blood cell count and prostate biopsy – related sepsis
INTRODUCTION Despite all preventive measures and improved biopsy techniques, serious, life-threatening complications of prostate biopsy, including sepsis, still exist. In the present study, in order to identify the risk factors that may be associated with sepsis development after prostate-biopsy, we aimed to analyze retrospectively the data of our patients who underwent transrectal ultrasound-g...

Background and Objective: Prostate cancer is considered as one of the most common malignancies in males. Despite the decreasing trend during the past decade, the incidence continues to rise in adolescents worldwide. Recently, new emerging technologies beside TRUS-guided prostate biopsy were introduced and showed high potential in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. The current st...
متن کاملStudy of Correlation between Prostate Specific Antigen and Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 Activity in Benign and Malignant Prostate Hyperplasia
There are emerging data on novel tumor markers such as matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2 or gelatinase-A), which play a key role in tissue invasion and metastasis. We designed an investigation to assess the usefulness of MMP-2 activity as compared to prostate specific antigen (PSA) in cancer staging process. We have analyzed the circulating form of MMP-2 in serum samples of patients suffering f...
متن کاملAssociation between HIV status and Positive Prostate Biopsy in a Study of U.S. Veterans
It is estimated that 1.2 million Americans are infected with HIV. With advances in treatment and improved survival, HIV-positive patients are increasingly reaching an age when prostate cancer becomes a health issue. While there have been some reports in the literature reporting lower incidence of prostate cancer in HIV population cohorts, these studies have focused on younger populations, where...
متن کاملCorrelation between Gleason scores in needle biopsy and corresponding radical prostatectomy specimens. A twelve-year review.
Background: Presence of discordance between the Gleason score on needle biopsy and the score of radical prostatectomy specimen is common and universal. In this study, we determined the accuracy of Gleason grading of biopsies in predicting histological grading of radical prostatectomy specimens and the degree of overgrading and undergrading of prostatic adenocarcinoma i...
